Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+8y=12 3x-8y=11

If we have to solve by substitution, Take the first equation and divide by 2

2x/2 + 8y/2 =12/2

x+4y = 6

Then subtract 4y from each side

x = 6 -4y

Then substitute this into the second equation

This is best solved by elimination

2x+8y=12

3x-8y=11

----------------

5x = 36

x = 36/5

PLEASE HELP!!

Standard form is just putting (in this case) variables in alphabetical order. First we simplify- 2x+4=4y would become 1/2x+1=y. This is already in standard form, as numbers w/o variables come at the end. simplifying the next one is more tricky. first you get a variable/number alone-
9-2x-2y=4x+3
9-2y=6x+3
6-2y=6x
1-1/3y=x
1=x+1/3y
3=x+y
x+y=3
sorry if I was wrong and not of any help, But I do believe this is correct.
