ANSWER

The solution is

(x,y)=(1,-5)

EXPLANATION

The equations are:

1st equation: 6x +5y=-19

2nd equation: 12x-8y=52

Multiply the first equation by 2:

3rd equation: 12x +10y=-38

Subtracy the 2nd equation from the 3rd equations.

12x-12x+10y--8y=-38-52

18y=-90

Divide both sides by 18.

y=-5

Put y=-5 into any of the equations and solve for x.

Preferably, the first equation will do.

6x +5(-5)=-19

6x -25=-19

6x=25-19

6x=6

x=1

The solution is

(x,y)=(1,-5)
