Answer: X=1, Y=2

Explanation:

-3x+5=4x-2

-3x-4x+5=2 (move like variables to the left side an change it’s sign)

-3x-4x=-2-5 (move constant to the right side an change it’s sign)

-3x-4x=-2-5 (combine like terms and calculate the difference)

-7x=7 (divide both sides by -7)

X=1

Substitute 1 for X in Y=4x-2

4(1)-2

4-2

Y=2
