Question

Solve this system. Please state answer as an ordered pair.

16x-10y=10

-8x-6y=6

Answer 1

ok ok
first step.

Answer 2

Remember this has the same concept as the last one.

Answer 3

Solve for x?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

and then for y

Answer 6

-8x - 6y = 6
-8x = 6 + 6y
right so far??

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

Now divide by -8.

Answer 9

(6 +6y)/8 ? like this?

Answer 10

The equation would be would be x=-6/8y-6/8, so yes

Answer 11

Then plug that in for x in the original equation.

Answer 12

alright so how will it be after that?

Answer 13

It would be 16(-6/8y-6/8)-10y=10

Answer 14

Then:
-12y-12-10y=10
-2y=22
y=-11
and then plug the y back into the original equation

Answer 15

oh..

Answer 16

16x-10(-11)=10
16x+110=10
16x=-100
x=25/4

Answer 17

Coordinates are (25/4,-11)

Answer 18
