Question

Solve the following system of equations using the elimination method. 8x – 5y = 5 –8x – 6y = 6 Question 3 options: A) (0,1) B) (0,–1) C) (2,–3) D) (–2,3)

Answer 1

B: x = 0, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation: Hope it Helps!

Answer 2

(0,-1)

Explanation:

8x – 5y = 5

–8x – 6y = 6

-11y = 11

/-11 /-11

y = -1

8x – 5y = 5

8x - 5(-1) = 5

8x - (-5) = 5

8x + 5 = 5

- 5 - 5

8x = 0

/8 /8

x = 0

8x – 5y = 5

8(0) - 5y = 5

0 - 5y = 5

-5y = 5

/-5 /-5

y = -1

(x,y) ==> (0,-1)
