Question

Please help explanation if possible

Answer 1

(- 1, 18 )

Explanation:

Given the equations

y + 8x = 10 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

y = 10 - 8x → (1)

2y - 4x = 40 → (2)

Substitute y = 10 - 8x into (2)

2(10 - 8x) - 4x = 40 ← distribute and simplify left side

20 - 16x - 4x = 40

20 - 20x = 40 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

- 20x = 20 ( divide both sides by - 20 )

x = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 10 - 8(- 1) = 10 + 8 = 18

solution is (- 1, 18 )

Answer 2

Explanation:

Y=

`y = 10 - 8x \\ put \: this \: in \: the \: second \: equation \\ 2(10 - 8x) - 4x = 40 \\ 20 - 16x - 4x = 40 \\ 20 - 20x = 40 \\ - 20 = 20x \\ x = - 1 \\ put \: the \: value \: of \: x \: in \: th \: first \: equation \\ y = 10 - 8( - 1) \\ y = 10 + 8 \\ y = 18`

Hence, x=-1 and y=18
