    x = 8

    y = 10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are given the equations;

    -3x + 4Y = 16

    3x - y = 14

    We are required to solve the two equations simultaneously using elimination

    In this case, we will eliminate one unknown;

    We eliminate x by adding the two equations;

    That is;

    -3x + 4Y = 16

    3x - y = 14

    ...

    3y = 30

    y = 10

    Solving for x

    3x - (10) = 14

    3x = 14 + 10

    3x = 24

    x = 8

    Therefore, the solution of the equation is x=8 and y=10
