Solution

To determine which statement is true, we need to substitute x = -5 and y = 0.25 into both equations and see if they hold true.

Let's start with Equation A: 4y – 3x = 16 Substituting the values, we get: 4(0.25) - 3(-5) = 16 This simplifies to: 1 + 15 = 16 So, x = -5 and y = 0.25 satisfy Equation A.

Now, let's check Equation B: -x – 8y = 3 Substituting the values, we get: -(-5) - 8(0.25) = 3 This simplifies to: 5 - 2 = 3 So, x = -5 and y = 0.25 also satisfy Equation B.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. They are the only values that make both equations true.
