Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+4y=12

 2x+y= - 8       <===== multiply THIS equation by -4 to get

-8x - 4y =  32      now add it to the top equation...this will 'eliminate' y

-11x = 44

x = - 4      <==== use this value of x in one of the equations to find y

2x + y = -8

2(-4) + y = - 8

y =  0
