To solve the system of equations given by:

  1. \( 8x - 3y = -22 \) (Equation 1)
  2. \( y = 10 + 4x \) (Equation 2)

we can substitute Equation 2 into Equation 1.

Substituting \( y \) from Equation 2 into Equation 1:

\[ 8x - 3(10 + 4x) = -22 \]

Now, distribute the \(-3\):

\[ 8x - 30 - 12x = -22 \]

Combine like terms:

\[ 8x - 12x - 30 = -22 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ -4x - 30 = -22 \]

Next, add 30 to both sides:

\[ -4x = 8 \]

Now, divide by \(-4\):

\[ x = -2 \]

Now that we have \(x\), we can find \(y\) using Equation 2:

\[ y = 10 + 4(-2) \] \[ y = 10 - 8 \] \[ y = 2 \]

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is:

\[ \boxed{(-2, 2)} \]
