Full solution

Q. Solve.\newline5x+8y=165x + 8y = -16\newlinex=8x = 8\newline(_____, _____)
  1. Substitute x=8x = 8: Substitute x=8x = 8 into the equation 5x+8y=165x + 8y = -16.\newlineCalculation: 5(8)+8y=165(8) + 8y = -16\newline40+8y=1640 + 8y = -16
  2. Isolate variable term: Isolate the variable term 8y8y.\newlineCalculation: 40+8y40=164040 + 8y - 40 = -16 - 40\newline8y=568y = -56
  3. Solve for y: Solve for y.\newlineCalculation: 8y8=568\frac{8y}{8} = \frac{-56}{8}\newliney = 7-7
  4. Find ordered pair: We found:\newlinex=8x = 8\newliney=7y = -7\newlineWhat is the solution in the form of an ordered pair?\newlineSubstitute x=8x = 8 and y=7y = -7 into (x,y)(x, y).\newlineThe solution is (8,7)(8, -7).
