    D) x=-3, y=-7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    9x - 7y = 22

    x + 3y = - 24

    9x - 7y = 22

    x = - 24-3y

    9 (-24-3y) - 7y=22

    x = - 24-3y

    -216-27y-7y=22

    x = - 24-3y

    -34y=22+216

    x = - 24-3y

    -34y=238

    x = - 24-3y

    y=238 / (-34)

    x=-24-3y

    y=-7

    x=-24-3 * (-7)

    y=-7

    x=-24+21

    y=-7

    x=-3

    (x, y) = (-3,-7)
