Answer:
C) (-4, 2)
Explanation:
It is easier to begin by putting the y equation back into the x equation so it would be rewritten as:
x= 2 (-2x - 6) - 8
Since you replace the y for the given y value
Distribute and you get
x = -4x -12 -8
Add 4x to both sides to get rid of it on the right and balance the equation
5x = -12-8 which is -20
5x = -20
divide by 5 gives you the value -4 for the x
Now simply put that value in for the y equation
y= (-2 (-4)) -6
y = 8 - 6
y = 2
