Answer:

The answer D is correct.

Explanation:

-x + y = 8 ⇒ ( 1 )

7x + 3y = - 16 ⇒ ( 2 )

y = 8 + x ⇒ ( 3 )

Let us take equation 2 and let us replace y with (8+x).

Let us solve and find the value of x.

7x + 3y = -16

7x + 3 ( 8 + x ) = - 16

7x + 24 + 3x = -16

10x + 24 = -16

10x = -16 - 24

10x = -40

x = (-4)

And now let us find the value of y.

For that, let us use equation (3)

Here, we have to replace x with -4 to find the value of y.

y = 8 + x

y = 8 - 4

y = 4

Now we have to the answers in the form ( x , y )

Let us write.

( x , y ) ⇒ ( -4 , 4 )

Let me know if you have any other questions. :-)
