    Answer:x=1 and y=-2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve

    3/x+8/y=-1

    1/x-2/y=2

    Solve simultaneously

    We get

    3/x+8/y=-1

    3/x-6/y=6

    -7y=14

    y=-2

    To get x

    Substitute for y in equation one

    3/x+8/-2=-1

    We have

    3/x-4=-1

    3/x=-1+4

    3/x=3

    x=1
