Substitute y=5: Substitute y=5 into the equation –7x−7y=14.–7x−7(5)=14–7x−35=14
Isolate variable term x: Isolate the variable term x. Add 35 to both sides of the equation. −7x−35+35=14+35−7x=49
Solve for x: Solve for x.Divide both sides by \(-7").\(-7x / −7 = 49 / −7")x = \(-7")
Find ordered pair solution: We found:x=−7y=5What is the solution in the form of an ordered pair?Substitute x=−7 and y=5 into (x,y).The solution is (−7,5).
