Let me try to LEAD you to the answer without finally answering this for you.

The given equations of the system(?):
2x-8y=5
-6x%2B24y=15

The second equation, -1%2A2%2A3%2Ax%2B3%2A8%2Ay=3%2A5
%283%29%2A%28-2x%2B8y%29=3%2A5
-2x%2B8y=5
And perform multiplication of both sides by -1,
2x-8y=-5.

Now, your system of equations really is this:
-----------------
highlight%282x-8y=5%29
and
highlight%282x-8y=-5%29
----------------

What does that tell you?
