Answer:
x= 
y= 
Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify, find the x-value first:

Substitute x-value into any equation (i did the second equation) and simplify:


Each "contour" is a pair of parallel lines with slope 8.
Given ---›
y = -3
&
y = x - 0.8
So,
=> x = y + 0.8
=> x = -3 + 0.8
=> x = -2.2
Therefore, the best approximation for the solution to this system of equations is = (–2.2, –3)
Answer:
x=1, y=6. (1, 6).
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x+4y=16
y=5x+1
----------------
-8x+4(5x+1)=16
-8x+20x+4=16
12x+4=16
12x=16-4
12x=12
x=12/12
x=1
y=5(1)+1=5+1=6
