Answer:

(1,-3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Luckily, y is already opposites, so it should be easier:

6x-8y=12

5x+8y=-1

Combine; This should end up with y eliminated -

11x = 11

x = 1

Now we can plug 1 in for x in one of the equations to find y. I'm going to use the second one.

5(1) +8y = -1

5+8y=-1

8y=-6

y=-6/8 (you can simplify)

The point at which the lines intersect is (1,-3/4)

3x - y = 7

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

C) -3x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

When you subtract the 3x-y=7 from 6x-y=10, you will receive the following equation:

3x-6x-y-(-y)=7-10

-3x-y+y=-3

-3x=-3

As we can see, this equation matches the one in option C, meaning that it's our answer!

Anvisha [2.4K]

If it is a system of two unknowns:
1) 4x-8y=5 multiple by 3
2)6x-12y=10 multiple by -2
then
12x-24y=15
-12x+24y=-20
x and y equals 0, so
