Sagot :

Answer:

x = -2

y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 5y = 24

y = -4x

8x + 5 (-4x) = 24      (Substitute y value)

8x - 20x = 24           (Multiply)

-12x = 24                   (Combine like terms and divide)

x = -2

y = -4 (-2)                   (Substitute x value. Multiply)

y = 8
