Answer:
x = 6 , y = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 2y = 24 ------------------- eq (1)
8x + 2y =30--------------------eq (2)
subtracting eq (1) from eq (2)
8x + 2y = 30
-7x - 2y = -24
----------------------------
x - 0 = 6
hence x = 6
putting this value of x in eq (2) ,
=> 8 (6) + 2y = 30
=> 48 + 2y = 30
=> 2y = 30 - 48
=> y = -18 / 2
=> y = -9
