  1. Stack Equations: First, let's stack the equations to see what we're working with:\newline8x+9y=21-8x + 9y = -21\newline3x+9y=36-3x + 9y = -36
  2. Eliminate y: We can eliminate y by subtracting the second equation from the first one: (8x+9y)(3x+9y)=21(36) (-8x + 9y) - (-3x + 9y) = -21 - (-36)
  3. Simplify Subtraction: Simplify the subtraction: 8x+9y+3x9y=21+36-8x + 9y + 3x - 9y = -21 + 36
  4. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms: 5x=15-5x = 15
  5. Solve for x: Divide both sides by 5-5 to solve for x:\newlinex=155x = \frac{15}{-5}\newlinex=3x = -3
  6. Substitute xx for yy: Now substitute x=3x = -3 into one of the original equations to solve for yy. Let's use the first equation:\newline8(3)+9y=21-8(-3) + 9y = -21
  7. Multiply and Solve for y: Multiply 8-8 by 3-3:24+9y=2124 + 9y = -21
  8. Subtract to Solve for y: Subtract 2424 from both sides to solve for yy: \newline9y=21249y = -21 - 24\newline9y=459y = -45
  9. Divide to Find y: Divide both sides by 99 to find y:\newliney = 459-\frac{45}{9}\newliney = 5-5
