Question 206507
{{{2x+3xy=8}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{2(-2)+3(-2)y=8}}} Plug in {{{x=-2}}}



{{{-4-6y=8}}} Multiply



{{{-6y=8+4}}} Add {{{4}}} to both sides.



{{{-6y=12}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{y=(12)/(-6)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-6}}} to isolate {{{y}}}.



{{{y=-2}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{y=-2}}}
