Solution Summary
The solution provides detailed explanation how to use substitution and elimination to solve linear equations.
Solution Preview
Methods of substitution:
-4x+9y=-71 (I)
3x-y=13 (II)
From (II), y=3x-13 (III), plug into (I):
-4x+9(3x-13)=-71.
x=2.
Plug x=2 into (III):
y=3*2-13=-7.
Therefore, the solution ...
