Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

I started by just choosing a value for x and then a value for y that would make the first equation true.  -1 for x and -2 for y worked...

[tex]-8(-1)+3(-2)=2\\8+(-6)=2\\8-6=2\\2=2[/tex]

...so I used them in the second expression:

[tex]-32(-1)+12(-2)\\32-24\\8[/tex]

Values that would make the 1st equation true will result in the second expression equally 8.
