Question

is my answer right? mine is -4,6
the equation is 5x–4y=–44 –x+3y=22

Answer 1

To check if your answer is correct, substitute the values of x and y into the two equations and see if they satisfy both equations.

Using your values of x = -4 and y = 6:

For the first equation:
5x – 4y = –44
5(-4) – 4(6) = -44
-20 - 24 = -44
-44 = -44 (true)

For the second equation:
–x + 3y = 22
-(-4) + 3(6) = 22
4 + 18 = 22
22 = 22 (true)

Since both equations are satisfied by your values of x = -4 and y = 6, your answer is correct.
