Answered by Steve
a little multiplying yields

24x + 27y = -57
-24x + 56y = -192

Now add them, and the x's vanish, giving you y.
Then you can easily get x.

Multiply all parts of the first equation by 3 and all parts of the second equation by 8.

Add the two equations and solve for y.
You can then find x by putting in your y-value into one of the original equations.

Also, you should check the final answer in both equation.
