9x−4y=200  7x−3y=200  ⇒ 2x=y    ⇒  x=200  income of first=9x =1800  income of second=7x=1400 .

$$\mathrm{9}{x}−\mathrm{4}{y}=\mathrm{200} \\ $$$$\mathrm{7}{x}−\mathrm{3}{y}=\mathrm{200} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{2}{x}={y}\:\:\:\:\Rightarrow\:\:{x}=\mathrm{200} \\ $$$${income}\:{of}\:{first}=\mathrm{9}{x}\:=\mathrm{1800} \\ $$$${income}\:{of}\:{second}=\mathrm{7}{x}=\mathrm{1400}\:. \\ $$
