Solve the system by substitution, if possible.
2x7y=-9
3x+14y+-10
I have tried several times and get the same answer, which is wrong. Here is what I am doing to get the answer:
2x-7y=9
-7y -7y
2x=-7y-9
/2 /2 /2
x=-7/2y-9/2
then I substitute for x:
2(-7/2y-9/2)-7y=-9
-7y-9-7y=-9
-14y-9=-9
-14y=0
y=0
then I substitute for y:
2x-7(0)=-9
2x=-9
/2 /2
x=-9/2
This is not the correct answer. I need help!!
