Answer: x = 1, y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x+2y=-13
x= 13/9 + 2/9y
2x-9y=20
2(13/9+2/9y)-9y=20
Substitute y with -2.
x= 13/9+2/9(-2)
After solving you'll see that 1 is a possible solution for x.
Check your answer
-9x+2y=-13
-9x1+2(-2) = -13
2x-9y=20
2x1-9(-2) = 20
-13 = -13
20 = 20
Therefore, x=1 and y=-2
