-x=-24

3. Change the signs

x=24

4. Susbstitue the value of x in the equation 3x+3y=-12

3 x 24 + 3 y = -12

Answer:

x=0 , y=4

Explanation:

3x - 3y = -12 - eq1

4x + 3y = 12 - eq 2

Add eq 1 and 2

3x - 3y + 4x +3y = -12 + 12

7x = 0

x = 0

By substituting the value of x in eq 2

4x + 3y = 12

4(0) + 3y = 12

3y = 12

y = 12 / 3

y = 4
