$$x - 7350 y = 1070$$ $$x - 15080y = 430$$ $$x = ?$$ $$y = ?$$

Hi

I'm trying to find the value of $x$ and $y$ but proving hard any help would be greatly appreciated!

What would be the approach here?

    Substract the second equation form the first to get rid of $x$, then you have $y$ and then in turn $x$. Alternatively use the second equation to express $x$ in terms of $y$ and plug that into the other equation.2012-08-16
