1. Problem Description

We are given a system of two linear equations:
8x+4y=0-8x + 4y = 0
x+6y=13x + 6y = -13
We need to solve for xx and yy using the substitution method.

2. Solution Steps

First, solve the second equation for xx in terms of yy:
x=6y13x = -6y - 13
Now, substitute this expression for xx into the first equation:
8(6y13)+4y=0-8(-6y - 13) + 4y = 0
48y+104+4y=048y + 104 + 4y = 0
52y+104=052y + 104 = 0
52y=10452y = -104
y=104/52y = -104/52
y=2y = -2
Now that we have the value of yy, we can substitute it back into the equation x=6y13x = -6y - 13 to find xx:
x=6(2)13x = -6(-2) - 13
x=1213x = 12 - 13
x=1x = -1

3. Final Answer

x=1x = -1
y=2y = -2
The solution is (1,2)(-1, -2).
