Answer: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

plug y into the first equation:

8x+5y=24

8x+5(-4x)=24

8x-20x=24

-12x=24

x=-24/12

x=-2

then plug x to the second equation

y=-4

y=-4(-2)

y=8

x=-2

y=8

Answer:

(- 6, 24 )

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 8x - 24 → (1)

y = - 4x → (2)

Substitute y = - 4x into (1)

- 4x = - 8x - 24 ( add 8x to both sides )

4x = - 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = - 6

Substitute x = - 6 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (2)

y = - 4(- 6) = 24

solution is (- 6, 24 )
