Answer:

y = -7

Explanation:

-3x - 2y = -25

Plug x as 13.

-3(13) - 2y = -25

-39 - 2y = -25

Add 39 on both sides,

- 2y = 14

Divide both sides by -2.

y = -7

Answer:

y = -7

Explanation:

-3x – 2y = -25

Let x = 13

-3 * 13 -2y = -25

-39 -2y = -25

Add 39 to each side

-39+39 -2y = -25+39

-2y =14

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = 14/-2

y = -7
