\begin{array}{cllll} -6x+5y&=&34\\ -6x-10y&=&4 \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill


\stackrel{ \textit{using elimination method} }{\begin{array}{cllll} \text{\LARGE -1}(-6x+5y&=&34)\\ -6x-10y&=&4 \end{array}}\implies \begin{array}{clclll} 6x ~~ -5y&=&-34\\ -6x-10y&=&4\\\cline{1-3} 0 ~~ -15y&=&-30 \end{array} \\\\\\ -15y=-30\implies y=\cfrac{-30}{-15}\implies y=2 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 1st equation}}{-6x+5(2)=34\implies} -6x+10=34\implies x=\cfrac{24}{-6}\implies x=-4 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill (-4~~,~~2)~\hfill
