    (-3,2)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1) - 2x+y=8

    you need to leave the Y alone on one side. Then, the term - 2x goes to the other side with its opposite sign which is +.

    y=8+2x

    2) y=2x / (5-8)

    3) 8+2x=2x / (5-8)

    now, you need the x value. for that, you need to leave x alone on one side.

    8+2x=2x / (-3)

    8+2x = - (2/3) x

    8 = - (2/3) x-2x

    8 = - (8/3) x

    8 / - (8/3) = x

    -3=x

    4) you now have the x value. you need the y value. for that, replace the x in one of the given equations. let's use the 1st equation.

    -2x+y=8

    y=8+2x

    y=8+2 * (-3)

    y=2

    result:

    x = - 3

    y=2
