Answer:

the x and y is 6 and -4 respectively

Explanation:

The computation of solving the system of equations is given below:

Given that

5x - 7y = 58

And,

y = -x + 2

Put y value in the first equation

5x - 7(-x + 2) = 58

5x + 7x - 14 = 58

12x = 58 + 14

12x = 72

x = 6

So y = -6 + 2

= -4

Hence, the x and y is 6 and -4 respectively
