Answer:
(x, y) = (0, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have an expression for x, substitution works nicely.
(8 -2y) +3y = 12 . . . . . . use the first equation to substitute for x in the 2nd
y = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 8, collect terms
x = 8 -2(4) = 0 . . . . substitute for y in the first equation
The solution is (x, y) = (0, 4).
