Q. Solve the system of equations.−5x−3y−9=04x−18y−54=0x=□y=□
Write Equations: Write down the given system of equations.We have the following system of equations:−5x−3y−9=04x−18y−54=0
Simplify Second Equation: Simplify the second equation if possible.The second equation, 4x−18y−54=0, can be simplified by dividing all terms by 2.This gives us 2x−9y−27=0.However, this simplification is incorrect because the terms do not divide evenly by 2. We should look for another common factor.
