    X=-10 and y=-13

    And the reason is that I cancelled the - 4y and + 4y so if the the sings are different you add if they are the same you subtract here I want to cancel the y so I add in order to cancel them out Which gets rid of it. Now I'm adding 3x to - 9x Which equals - 6x and when u add 22 and the 38 it equals 60 now you would have

    -6x=60

    Divide 60 by - 6

    =-10

    So x is - 10

    To work out y u gonna have to substitute in any equation I chose the first one because it's positive so

    3x-4y=22

    3x-10-4y=22

    -30-4y=22

    Add 30 to both sides.

    -4y=52

    Divide by - 4

    Y=-13
