-4x – 2y=-12<br> 4x + 8y=-24<br> Solve each system by elimination
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

x = 6 and y = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

- 4 x - 2 y = -12.......equ No 1

 4 x +  8y = - 24.......equ No 2

Adding equ No 1 and equ No 2

6 y = - 36

∴ y = - 6

substitute y = - 6 in equ No 2

4 x + 8 y = -24

4 x + 8 ×( -6) = - 24

4 x - 48 = -24

4 x = -24 + 48

4 x = 24

∴ x = 6

x = 6 and y = - 6

x+ 2x = 360°- 91° - 50°

3x = 219°

x = 219° ÷ 3

x = 73°
