Question

solve the system by Elimination x+8y=0 -4x-10y=22

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 1, x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$x + 8y = 0\\-4x - 10y = 22$

we can multiply the top equation by 4 and cancel out the x's

$4x + 32y = 0\\-4x - 10y = 22\\22y = 22\\y = 1$

$x + 8(1) = 0\\x = -8\\-4(-8) - 10(1) \\32 - 10 = 22$
