Y=3x+9
3x+9= 12x
Y= -x-5=5x
12x5x= 60

Answer:


(7,-12)

Explanation:

We have been given a system of equations. We are asked to solve the given system by graphing.


y=-3x+9...(1)\\y=-x-5...(2)

We can see both equations are in slope-intercept form of equation.

The line of equation
y=-3x+9 will cross the y-axis at (0,9) and will have a slope of
-3.

The line of equation
y=-x-5 will cross the y-axis at
(0,-5) and will have a slope of
-1.

Please find the attachment for the graph of both equations.

We can see that both lines intersect at point
(7,-12), therefore, the solution of our give system is
(7,-12).
