Answer:

X = -3, Y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

-2X-Y=14

X-4Y=29

Multiply the second equation by 2 so we can eliminate x

2(X-4Y)=29*2

2X - 8Y = 58

Add this to the first equation

-2X-Y=14

2X - 8Y = 58

--------------------

    -9Y = 72

Divide each side by -9

-9Y/-9 = 72/-9

Y = -8

Now we need to find X

X-4Y=29

X - 4(-8) = 29

X +32 = 29

Subtract 32 from each side

X +32-32= 29-32

X = -3
