    x-y = 9, x + y = 6

    x + y = 4, x - y = 2

    x + 2 y = 4, x - y = - 3

    x = 1

    y = 7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Your system of equations is

    -5x + 2y = 9

    y = 7x

    The easiest way to solve this is by substitution. This means that you set one of the equations equal to a variable and you plug that variable into the variable of the other equation. The second equation (y = 7x) is already set up this way so we will plug it into the first equation.

    -5x + 2 (7x) = 9

    -5x + 14x = 9

    9x = 9

    (9x) / 9 = (9) / 9

    x = 1

    You have found x. Now, plug this number into the second equation (y = 7x) to find the value of y.

    y = 7 (1)

    y = 7
