Answer:

D. (2, -3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the substitution method:

-5x+4(1/8x-1)=-13

-5x+0.5x-4=-13

-4.5x/4.5=-9/4.5

-x=-2

x=2

You are supposed to replace 2 in the first equation now but as there is no other option with x value of 2 D is the answer.

If continued:

-5(2)+4y=-13

-10+4y=-13

4y=-3

y=-3/4
