Question

8x-6y=-24
-48x+6y=144​

Answer 1

8x−6y=−24

Step 1: Add 6y to both sides.

8x−6y+6y=−24+6y

8x=6y−24

Step 2: Divide both sides by 8.

`(8x)/(8)` =
`(6y-24 )/(8)`

x=
`(3)/(4) y`
`-3`

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

−48+6y=144

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6y−48=144

Step 2: Add 48 to both sides.

6y−48+48=144+48

6y=192

Step 3: Divide both sides by 6.

`(6y)/(6)` =
`(192)/(6)`

y = 32
