Answer :

Answer:

I would use elimination in this scenario. Because in both equations there is a coefficient on both variables, it would be difficult to isolate one variable and would leave the equation as a fraction. Instead, use elimination. Multiply the first equation by -15, which changes it to 10x + 225y = -90, and then subtract the second equation, thus cancelling out the 10x's and letting you solve for Y. Hope this helps!
