Solve the system using elimination. 2x – 2y = –8 x + 2y = –1

a. (–3, 1)

b. (1, 5)

c. (0, 4)

d. (–14, 1)

The correct option is A) (–3, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided system of equation:

2x - 2y = -8  and x + 2y = -1

Now solve them using elimination method.

2x - 2y = -8

 x + 2y = -1

      3x = -9

        x = -3

Substitute the value of x in 2x - 2y = -8.

2(-3)-2y=-8

   -6-2y=-8

       -2y=-8+6

       -2y=-2

           y=1

The solution for the system of the equation is x = -3 and y =1

Hence, the correct option is A) (–3, 1).
