Answer:

x = -1 and y = -1.

Explanation:

The given system of equations are :

y = 4x + 3 ....(1)

y = -x - 2 ....(2)

From equation (1) and (2) :

4x + 3 = -x - 2

Taking like terms together,

4x + x = -3 -2

5x = -5

x = -1

Put the value of x in equation (1)

y = 4(-1) + 3

= -1

The solution is also shown in the attached figure. Hence, the solution is x = -1 and y = -1.
