Answer: y would be good for the second equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 8y = 12

(2x + 8y) + (-8) = 12 + (-8y)

2x + 8y - 8y = 12 - 8y

2x = -8y + 12

2x/2 = -8y + 12/2

X = -2^3 x y + 2^2 x 3/2

X = 2^2(-2^3 x y/2^2 + 2^2 x 3 /2^2)/2

X = 2^2 (-(2^3 - 2 x y) + 3)/2

X  = 2^2 (-(2y) + 3)/2

X = 2^2 - 1 (-2y + 3)

X = 2 (-2y + 3)

X = -2 x 2y + 2 x 3

X = -4y + 6

3x - 8y = 11

(3x + 8y) + (-3x) = 11 + (-3x)

3x + 8y - 3x = 11 - 3x

Y = -3x + 11/8

It looks like y would be good for the second equation.

Answer:

on apex, it is "x, in the first equation" :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation does not have coefficients that easily divide. In the first equation, if you were to solve y, you would end up with fractions in your coefficients. Solving for x produces integer coefficients.
