8x + 5y = 22

-8x + y = 14

Y = 6 X=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the numbers 8x+-8x=0. 5y+y=6y. 22+14=36 So that means 6y=36. So Y would equal 6 Substitute the values it one of the original equations. 8x + 5 (6) = 22. 8x+30=22 Minus 22 from both sides. That would give you 8x=-8 So x would equal - 1

x = - 1 and y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x + y = 14

y = 8x + 14

8x + 5y = 22

8x + 5 (8x + 14) = 22

8x + 40x + 70 = 22

48x + 70 = 22

48x : - 48 = - 48

x = - 1

y = 8x + 14

y = 8 (-1) + 14

y = - 8 + 14

y = 6
