Solve by elimination

-8x+12y = 12

-2x-12y = - 12

X = - 4

Y = - 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x + 12y = 12

-2x + 12y = - 12

Subtract equation two from equation one, we have

-6X = 24

Then divide both sides by - 6.

X = - 4

Substitute X = - 4 into any of the equations to get Y

x=0, y=1.

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x+12y = 12

-2x-12y = - 12 Adding these 2 equations:

-10x = 0

x = 0.

Plug this into equation 1:

-8 (0) + 12y = 12

12y = 12

y = 1.
