Explanation / Answer

8.1.21        5x-y=7

                  6x+2y=18

             Multiply equation first by 2 and adding it to second we get

              10x-2y +6x +2y= 14+18

              16x=32

              x=2

             5x-y=7

             5(2) -y=7

             y=3

8.1.27      2x+y=4

               4x+2y=-3

             Multiply first by -2 and adding it to second equation we get

             -4x-2y+ 4x+2y=-8-3

              0=-11

          The system is inconsistent
