Answer:

Solve equation [2] for the variable y

[2] y = -2x + 1

// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]

[1] (-2x+1) + 4x = -3

[1] 2x = -4

// Solve equation [1] for the variable x

[1] 2x = - 4

[1] x = - 2

// By now we know this much :

y = -2x+1

x = -2

// Use the x value to solve for y

y = -2(-2)+1 = 5

Solution :

{y,x} = {5,-2}
