Can someone explain to me how I can eliminate one of the variables to solve this equation for one of the variables?

In the elimination method you either add or subtract the equations to get an equation in one variable. When the coefficients of one variable are opposites you add the equations to eliminate a variable and when the coefficients of one variable are equal you subtract the equations to eliminate a variable.

x = 1 and y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the top equation by 7 on both sides, and then cancel it out:

7(5x + y) = 7(9)

35x + 7y = 63

Now use this equation to cancel out -7y on the second equation:

35x + 7y = 63

10x - 7y = -18

45x = 45

x = 1

Now that we have our x-value, we can plug it into one of our two original equations:

5(1) + y = 9

y = 4

i'm not sure what you mean but in todays world there is a lot of women that are the bread winners in the family. there is a lot more single mothers now that are going back to get an education which is boosting the economy. i believe there has been a boost in the economy due to women the cosmetic industry is boosting, chemist, the sky is becoming the limit for women in todays economy. most women are also putting off having kids just to make sure they have a education. i don't know how these two relate though to scriptures because it's not the way the lord wanted it. the man is suppose to be the bread winner and due to social media and the easy access we have there is a lot of cheating going on.
