solve by eliminating
-4+3y=1
8x+3y=1
First, we can solve for y in the first equation by isolating y:
-4 + 3y = 1
3y = 5
y = 5/3
Now we can substitute this value of y into the second equation and solve for x:
8x + 3(5/3) = 1
8x + 5 = 1
8x = -4
x = -1/2
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = -1/2 and y = 5/3.
