Answer:
[tex]x=-1\\y=7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations:
[tex]-8x+5y=43[/tex] Equation:1
[tex]-8x+4y=36[/tex] Equation:2
As the coefficients of 'x' are same which will eliminate the terms of 'x':
Subtracting Equation:2 From Equation:1
[tex]-8x+5y-(-8x+4y)=43-36\\\\-8x+5y+8x-4y=7\\\\5y-4y=7\\\\y=7[/tex]
Putting value of 'y' in either equation:1 or 2
Putting y=7 in equation:2
[tex]-8x+4y=36[/tex]
[tex]-8x+4(7)=36\\\\-8x+28=36[/tex]
Subtracting '28' from both side:
[tex]-8x+28-28=36-28\\\\-8x=8\\[/tex]
Changing the sides:
[tex]8x=-8[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-8}{8} \\\\x=-1[/tex]
The values are :
[tex]x=-1\\y=7[/tex]
