Answer:

10x - 12y = 192

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation :

-5/8x + 3/4y = 12 - - - (1)

8x + 12y = 11 ___(2)

The equivalent form of the first equation which can eliminate the y term :

Multiply (1) by - 16 :

-5/8x * - 16 + 3/4y * - 16 = 12 * - 16

10x - 12y = 192

Hence, Adding the obtained equation and equation(2) will eliminate.
