Answer:
x = 2 y = -1 or (2,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x + y= -5
Moved -2x to the other side
y = 2x - 5
2y + 3x = 4
Substitute y with 2x - 5
2(2x - 5) + 3x = 4
Distribute
4x - 10 + 3x = 4
Combine the terms
7x - 10 = 4
Move the constant to the other side
7x - 10 = 4
+10 +10
7x = 14
Divide both side by 7
7x/7 = 14/7
x = 2
Back to -2x + y= -5
Substitute the x with 2
-2(2) + y = -5
Combine the terms
-4 + y = -5
Move the constant to the other side
-4 + y = -5
+4 +4
y = -1
