Q. What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first?

\newline

-2 x+y=0

\newline

-7 x+3 y=2

\newline

\square

Write Equations: Write down the equations to be subtracted. $\newline$ First equation: $-2x + y = 0$ $\newline$ Second equation: $-7x + 3y = 2$
Subtract Equations: Subtract the second equation from the first equation. $\newline$ $(-2x + y) - (-7x + 3y) = 0 - 2$ $\newline$ This simplifies to $-2x + y + 7x - 3y = -2$
Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms. $\newline$ $(-2x + 7x) + (y - 3y) = -2$ $\newline$ This simplifies to $5x - 2y = -2$
Check for Errors: Check the result for any mathematical errors. $5x - 2y = -2$ appears to be correctly obtained from the subtraction of the second equation from the first.
