Solve equation [1] for the variable u
[1] u = v
// Plug this in for variable u in equation [2]
[2] 8•(v ) - 4v = -32
[2] 4v = -32
// Solve equation [2] for the variable v
[2] 4v = - 32
[2] v = - 8
// By now we know this much :
u = v
v = -8
// Use the v value to solve for u
u = (-8) = -8
Solution : {u , v } = { -8,-8}
[1] u = v
