Answer:

Missing value is -4/3 and whole solution can be written as ( 8,-4/3)

Explanation:

Given equation 2x+3y=12

solution ( 8,)

solution is form (x,y) hence in (8,) x is given as 8 while y is missing to find y

we will plug 8 as value of x in equation 2x+3y=12. From this equation we will find the missing value.

2x+3y=12

=> 2*8+3y=12

=> 16 + 3y = 12

=> 3y = 12-16= -4

=> y = -4/3

Thus, missing value is -4/3 and whole solution can be written as ( 8,-4/3)
