Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve simultaneous equations using substitution method, elimination method or graphical method. But for this purpose, we will be using the elimination method.

3x+4y=8 Equation 1

2x+y=42 Equation 2

Multiply Equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, so as to get the same coefficient for x

2(3x+4y=8)= 6x+8y=16 Equation 3

3(2x+y=42)= 6x+3y=126 Equation 4

Subtract equation 4 from 3, to eliminate x

6x-6x=0

8y-3y= 5y

16-126= -110

We now have 5y=-110

Divide both sides by 5,

y= -110/5

= -22

Substituting for y in equation 2

2x+(-22)= 42

2x= 42+22

2x=64

x= 64/2

= 32

(x, y)

(32, -22)
