Use the solution of the system below to find x-y:

4x-2y=11
3x-4y=-6

a 11.3
b 0.1
c -0.1
d -11.3

please explin how to do this.
Thanks!!!

Use one equation to isolate either x or y.

4x = 11 + 2y
x = 11/4 + 1/2y

Substitute that value for x in the second equation and solve for y. Put that value back in the first equation to solve for x. Check by putting both values into the second equation.

Subtract y from x.

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
