Answer: x = -4
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
From equation I
-6x + 5y = 34
-6x = 34-5y
-(-6x) = -(34-5y)
or, 6x = 5y-34
or, x = 5y-34/6
so
substituting the value in equation II
-6x-10y = 4
or, -6{(5y-34)/6} - 10y = 4
or, -(5y-34)-10y = 4
or, -5y + 34-10y = 4
or, -15y = -30
or, y = -30/(-15)
so, y = 30/15
so, y = 2
now
x = (5y-34)/6
= (5*2-34)/6
= (10-34)/6
= -24/6
= -4
