How do you solve 8x-3y=-70 and -2x+5y=-8 using the elimination method please show work.

6x+2y=-78

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-3y=-70

-2x+5y=-8

6x+2y=-78

(-11, -6).

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-3y=-70

-2x+5y=-8     Multiply this equation by 4:

-8x+20y=-32

Now add this last equation to the first equation:

17y = -102   - we see that we have eliminated x.

y = -102/17

= -6.

Now plug y=-6 in the first equation to get x:

8x-3(-6)=-70

8x =-70 -18

8x =-88

x = -11.

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4
