Let's solve your system by substitution.

−3x+5y=−9;4x+8y=12

Step: Solve−3x+5y=−9for x:

−3x+5y=−9

−3x+5y+−5y=−9+−5y(Add -5y to both sides)

−3x=−5y−9

−3x

−3 = −5y−9 −3

(Divide both sides by -3)

x=

-3x + 5y = -9

4x + 8y = 12

Simplify the second,

x + 2y = 3

Times three,

3x + 6y = 9

Add to the first equation,

11y = 0

y = 0

-3x + 5(0) = -9

x = 3

Answer: x=3, y=0
