The multipliers of this system of equations have been determined to create opposite terms of the x-variable.

12 (negative one-sixth x minus two-thirds y = negative 5) right-arrow negative 2 x + 8 y = negative 60.

5 (two-fifths x + one-fifth y = negative 9) right-arrow 2 x + y = negative 45

What is the value of y?

-30

-15

15

30

+5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    negative 2 x - 8 y = negative 60

    2 x + y = negative 45

    -2x - 8y = - 60

    2x + y = - 45

    Adding the two equtions:

    -7y = - 105

    y = 15
