Answer:
[tex]\left( -\dfrac{4}{25}, -\dfrac{98}{25} \right)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x+2y=-8 \\\\y=12x-2[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]x+2(12x-2)=-8[/tex]
Expand:
[tex]x+24x-4=-8[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]25x=-4[/tex]
Divide both sides by 25:
[tex]x=-\dfrac{4}{25}[/tex]
Plug this back into one of the original equations to find y:
[tex]-\dfrac{4}{25}+2y=-8 \\\\\\2y=-7 \dfrac{21}{25}=-\dfrac{196}{25} \\\\\\y=-\dfrac{98}{25}[/tex]
The ordered pair that represents this solution is therefore:
[tex]\left( -\dfrac{4}{25}, -\dfrac{98}{25} \right)[/tex]
Hope this helps!
