Answer:

X= 1/2 Y= 5

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+7y=39-------------(1)--------×2

4x-14y= -68-----------(2)-------×1

16X + 14Y = 78--------(3)

4X- 14Y = -68----------(4)

Addy equation (4) and (3)

20X = 10

dividing bothsides by 20

20X/20= 10/20

X = 1/2

substitute the value of X into equation (1)

8X+7Y = 39

8(1/2)+7Y= 39

4+7Y = 39

7Y = 39-4

7Y = 35

dividing bothsides 7

7Y= 35/7

Y = 5
