Answer:

The answer would be (-2, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 8y= 34

2(7x + 4y = -34)

3x - 8y=34

14x + 8y= -68

----------------------

     17x= -34    divided by 17

       x = -2

3(-2) -8y= 34

-6 -8y =34 add 6

   -8y= 40  divide by -8

      y = -5

if you want to check the answer replacing -2 for x and -5 for y

7(-2) + 4(-5)= -34

-14 + (-20) = -34

-34 = -34

I hope this help sorry I'm not good explaining
