Answer:
x = 8 y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 2nd equation by -3 to get -6x - 3y = -72
Now 4x + 3y = 56
-6x - 3y = -72
-2x = -16
x = 8
Substitute x = 8 into the 2nd equation
2(8) + y = 24
16 + y = 24
y = 8
Check: Substitute the values into the 1st equation
4(8) + 3(8) = 32 + 24 = 56 So we have the correct values for x and y
