I think it’s (-2, -16)

If u substitute the y into the second equation it gives you 8x=2x-12 then, you subtract 2x from both sides and it gets you 6x=-12 lastly, you divide by 6 which gets you x=-2. To find y you can take the first equation and plug x in which gives you y=8(-2) and then you multiply which gives you y=-16!! I really hope this helped!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

The equations are;

y = 8x...........(i)

y = 2x-12..........(ii)

Now;

Substituting the value of "y" from equation (i).

8x = 2x-12

8x-2x = -12

6x = -12

X = -12/6

Therefore, X= -2.

Now; Substituting the value of "y" in equation (i)

y = 8*-2

y = -16

Therefore, y= -16.

Therefore, x= -2 and y= -16.

Check:

y = 2x

-16= 8*-2

-16 = -16 (true).

Hope it helps...
