Answer:

(-1, -8)

Explanation:

So you would do the simplifying by "subtracting" the equations from each other. So to isolate the x, you could subtract the y away.

8x + y = -16

-3x + y = -5

-___________

11x = -11

x = -1

Then, substitute x into either equation.

8(-1) + y = -16

-8 + y = -16

Isolate y.

y = -8
