Substitute x=−9: Substitute x=−9 into the equation 6x−5y=−4 and then simplify.Substitute −9 for x in 6x−5y=−4.6(−9)−5y=−4
Calculate and simplify: Calculate the multiplication and simplify the equation.−54−5y=−4
Isolate variable term: Isolate the variable term 5y. Add 54 to both sides of the equation to move the constant term to the right side. −54+54−5y=−4+54−5y=50
Solve for y: Solve for y.Divide both sides by −5 to isolate y.(−5y)/−5=50/−5y=−10
Find ordered pair: We found:x=−9y=−10What is the solution in the form of an ordered pair?Substitute x=−9 and y=−10 into (x,y).The solution is (−9,−10).
