Answer:

One solution at (-2,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+4y=−2.

2x−4y=−8

Add the two equations together

3x+4y=−2

2x−4y=−8

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

5x +0y = -10

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -10/5

x=-2

Now find y

2x-4y = -8

2*-2 -4y = -8

-4-4y = -8

Add 4 to each side

-4+4 -4y = -8+4

-4y = -4

Divide by -4

y = 1
