To go from the equation \( 2x + 7y = 14 \) to the equivalent equation \( 4x + 14y = 28 \), you need to multiply the entire equation by \( 2 \).

So, the statement would be:

The equation \( 2x + 7y = 14 \) should be multiplied by \( 2 \) to produce the equivalent equation \( 4x + 14y = 28 \).

To solve the system of equations using the elimination method, we have the following two equations:

1. \( 2x - 3y = 14 \) \quad (Equation 1)
2. \( 4x + 3y = 10 \) \quad (Equation 2)

First, let's manipulate these equations to eliminate one of the variables. Since the coefficients of \( y \) in the two equations have opposite signs, we can add the two equations directly after multiplying Equation 1 by \( 1 \) (to keep it as it is) and Equation 2 by \( 1 \) (to keep it as it is).

### Step 1: Prepare to eliminate \( y \)

We can add the two equations together:

\[
(2x - 3y) + (4x + 3y) = 14 + 10
\]

### Step 2: Combine the equations

This results in:

\[
2x + 4x - 3y + 3y = 14 + 10
\]
\[
6x = 24
\]

### Step 3: Solve for \( x \)

Now, divide both sides by \( 6 \):

\[
x = \frac{24}{6} = 4
\]

### Step 4: Substitute \( x \) back to find \( y \)

Now that we have \( x = 4 \), substitute this value back into either of the original equations. We'll use Equation 1:

\[
2(4) - 3y = 14
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
8 - 3y = 14
\]

### Step 5: Solve for \( y \)

Subtract \( 8 \) from both sides:

\[
-3y = 14 - 8
\]
\[
-3y = 6
\]

Now, divide both sides by \( -3 \):

\[
y = \frac{6}{-3} = -2
\]

### Final Solution

The solution to the system of equations is:

\[
(x, y) = (4, -2)
\]

### 1. Substitution Method for the First System of Equations
**Given System:**
1. \( 2x + 3y = 4 \)
2. \( -4x - 6y = -8 \)

Let's simplify the second equation:
\[
-4x - 6y = -8 \implies 4x + 6y = 8 \quad (\text{just multiply by } -1)
\]
We can see that the second equation is just double the first equation:
\[
4x + 6y = 8 \text{ can be obtained by multiplying } (2x + 3y = 4) \text{ by } 2.
\]
This means the two equations represent the same line, hence there are **infinite solutions**.
- **Response:** **infinite solutions**

---

### 2. Substitution Method for the Second System of Equations
**Given System:**
1. \( x = y - 4 \)
2. \( x + 8y = 2 \)

Substituting \( x \) from the first equation into the second:
\[
(y - 4) + 8y = 2
\]
Combine like terms:
\[
y - 4 + 8y = 2 \implies 9y - 4 = 2
\]
Add \( 4 \) to both sides:
\[
9y = 6 \implies y = \frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3}
\]
Now substitute back to find \( x \):
\[
x = y - 4 = \frac{2}{3} - 4 = \frac{2}{3} - \frac{12}{3} = \frac{-10}{3}
\]
So the answer to the second system is:
- **Response:** **(2/3, −3 1/3)**

### 3. Equivalent System of Equations
**Given Equations:**
- \( 2x + 7y = 14 \)
- \( 4x + 5y = 10 \)

To check for equivalence, let's identify each option:
1. **\( 2x + 7y = 14 \) and \( 2x + 5y = 5 \)** - Not equivalent.
2. **\( 4x + 14y = 14 \) and \( 4x + 5y = 10 \)** - Not equivalent.
3. **\( 2x + 7y = 14 \) and \( 8x + 10y = 20 \)** - Not equivalent (not properly scaled).
4. **\( 4x + 14y = 28 \) and \( 8x + 10y = 20 \)** - Correct, because you could arrive at these by multiplying.

So the correct response would be:
- **Response:** \( 4x + 14y = 28 \) and \( 8x + 10y = 20 \)

---

### 4. Why is the system equivalent?
The first system is equivalent to the second system because they represent the same relationships. The simplest option is:
- Both equations, \( 2x + 7y = 14 \) and \( 4x + 5y = 10 \), can be multiplied by \( 2 \) to produce another equivalent form.
- **Response:** Both equations, \( 2x + 7y = 14 \) and \( 4x + 5y = 10 \), can be multiplied by \( \frac{1}{2} \) to produce the equivalent system of equations.

---

### 5. Elimination Method for the Last System of Equations
**Given System:**
1. \( 3x - 4y = -4 \)
2. \( x + 3y = -10 \)

Let's eliminate \( x \) by manipulating the second equation:

First, rearranging the second equation:
\[
x = -10 - 3y
\]

Now substitute \( x \) in the first equation:
\[
3(-10 - 3y) - 4y = -4
\]
Distribute \( 3 \):
\[
-30 - 9y - 4y = -4
\]
Combine like terms:
\[
-30 - 13y = -4
\]
Add \( 30 \) to both sides:
\[
-13y = 26
\]
So:
\[
y = -2
\]

Now substitute back to find \( x \):
\[
x = -10 - 3(-2) = -10 + 6 = -4
\]

So the solution to the system is:
- **Response:** **(−4, −2)**
