Question

(2x + y = -2
(5x + 3y = -8
Solve by substitution

Answer 1

Answer: (2, -6)

Step-by-step explanation: look at the attached image

Answer 2

(2, -6)

Explanation:

y = -2 - 2x

5x + 3 (-2-2x) = - 8

5x - 6 - 6x = - 8

-x - 6 = 8

- 6 + 8 = x

2 = x

x = 2

y = -2 -2x

y = -2 -2(2)

y = -2 -4

y = -6

(x, y) = (2, -6)
