Answer:

The answer to your question is (5, 0)

Explanation:

Solve the system of equations by elimination

3x + 8y = 15 (1)

2x - 8y = 10 (2)

Add the equations

5x - 0y = 25

Simplify

5x = 25

x = 25/5

x = 5

Find the "y" value

3(5) + 8y = 15

15 + 8y = 15

8y = 15 - 15

8y = 0

y = 0/8

y = 0
