Answer:

x=3

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 7y = -13

3x + 6y = 15

3(-2x - 7y = -13) = -6x - 21y = -39

2(3x + 6y = 15) = 6x + 12y = 30

-6x - 21y = -39

----------------------  The -6x and 6x cancel out, 12 - 21 is equal to 9, 30 - 39 = -9

6x + 12y = 30

Therefore, you can say that -9y = -9 so y = 1

FInally, plug that back into either one of the original equations:

3x + 6(1) =15

3x = 9

x = 3
