Answer:

x=-29/24

y=3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-9y= -7 ---A

2y-6x= 8----B

multiply eq A by 2

6x-18y=-14

-6x+2y=8

Add both equations, so you eliminate x since 6x+(-6x) = 0

-18y+2y= -16y

-14+8=-6

so you have

-16y=-6

y=3/8

now substitute this back to eq B, (you can use eq A as well if you like)

2(3/8)-6x=8

3/4-6x=8

-6x=29/4

x=-29/24
