y=7x

x=y/7

plug into other equation

y = 4(y/7) + 20

y = 4y/7 + 20

-20 = 4y/7 – y

-20 = 4y/7 – 7y/7

-20 = -3y/7

-140 = -3y

y = 140/3

y=4x+20 and y=7x

7x = 4x +20

3x = 20

x = 20/3

y = 7(20/3)

y = 140/3

7x=4x+20

+-4x=+-4x add -4x to both sides

3x=20 the 4x on top and the -4x on the bottom cancel out

3/3x = 20/3 divide both side by 3

x=6 2/3
