Given data:
The first equation is 2x - 8y=10.
The second equation is x= -4y +7.
Substitute second equation into first.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2(-4y+7)-8y=10 \\ -8y+14-8y=10 \\ -16y=-4 \\ y=\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]The value of x is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=-4(\frac{1}{4})+7 \\ =-1+7 \\ =6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus,, the value of x is 6, and the value of y is 1/4.
