Answer:

No solution

Explanation:

Given :

  • 8x - 3y = 12
  • -8x + 3y = 5

Because we have two variables that can cancel out, we can solve the system using elimination as we can easily add the two equations, cancel out one of the variables and solve for the other.

8x - 3y = 12

+ -8x + 3y = 5

-----------------------

0x + 0y = 17

Simplifying this we are left with 0 = 17

Because no variables can be defined there are no solutions to the equation.
