Let's first solve the first equation -9x + y = 12 for y:

y = 9x + 12

Now substitute this value of y into the second equation 2x + 4y = -28:

2x + 4(9x + 12) = -28
2x + 36x + 48 = -28
38x + 48 = -28
38x = -76
x = -2

Now substitute x = -2 back into y = 9x + 12:

y = 9*(-2) + 12
y = -18 + 12
y = -6

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is (-2, -6).
