Answer:
(2,-7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x.
Plug in the value for y into the equation.
y=-5x+3
8x+2y=2
8x + 2(-5x+3)=2
8x-10x+6=2
-6 -6
---------------------
8x-10x = 2-6
8x-10x = -4
-2x = -4
÷ -2 ÷ -2
-------------------
x = 2
Solve for y.
Plug in the value for x into the equation.
8x+2y=2
8(2) + 2y=2
16 + 2y = 2
- 16 - 16
----------------------
2y = 2 - 16
2y = -14
÷ 2 ÷2
----------------
y = -7
Solve.
Determine if x and y values work.
8(2)+2(-7)=2
16-14=2
2=2
x and y values work so the answer is: (2,-7)
