Respuesta :

7x - 8y = -41
7x - 8(6x) = -41
7x - 48x = -41
-41x = -41
x = 1

Answer:

x = 1

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 6x   --------------(I)

7x - 8y = -41   ------------(II)

Substitute y =6x in equation (II)

7x - 8*(6x) = -41

7x - 48x    = -41   {Combine like terms}

     -41x = -41

          x = -41/-41

x = 1

Plug in x = 1 in equation (I)

y = 6*1

y = 6
