Algebra question need help ASAP

Please help me solve this eliminating algebra 1 question:

Solve by eliminating.
2x-3y=61
2x+y=-7

Please also show how u got the answer, in short please show ur word!!!!!!! Thanks

You can solve it using the elimination method:

2x -3y = 61
2x +y = -7 * (-1)

2x -3y = 61
-2x -y = +7

The x will disappear:

-4y = 68
y = 68/-4
y = -17

With Y value, use it on either equation:
2x + (-17) = -7
2x = -7 + 17
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5

Thanks! Solved.
