Pls do an elimination method to find x and y.Thanks!Pls help me it's been 1 hour

16)
15x + 7y = -5 ⇒ -10(15x + 7y = -5) ⇒ -150x - 70y = 50
11x + 10y = -28 ⇒ 7(11x + 10y = -28) ⇒ 77x + 70y = -196
-73x = -146
x = 2
11x + 10y = -28
11(2) + 10y = -28
22 + 10y = -28
10y = -50
y = -5
Answer: x = 2, y = -5
18)
7x - 4y = 1 ⇒ 1(7x - 4y = 1) ⇒ 7x - 4y = 1
5x + 2y = -9 ⇒ 2(5x + 2y = -9) ⇒ 10x + 4y = -18
17x = -17
x = -1
7x - 4y = 1
7(-1) - 4y = 1
-7 - 4y = 1
-4y = 8
y = -2
Answer: x = -1, y = -2
