Answer:

No Solution

Explanation:

Substituting y = -4x into the first equation, we get:

8x + 5(-4x) = 24(-4x)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

8x - 20x = -96x

Dividing both sides by -12x, we get:

-4/3 = -96

This equation has no solution, which means that the system of equations is inconsistent and does not have a unique solution.

Therefore, the system of equations cannot be solved to find the values of x and y.
