Answer:
(- 1, - 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 3x - 2 → (1)
6 + y = - x → (2)
Substitute y = 3x - 2 into (2)
6 + 3x - 2 = - x
4 + 3x = - x ( add x to both sides )
4 + 4x = 0 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
4x = - 4 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = - 1
Substitute x = - 1 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = 3(- 1) - 2 = - 3 - 2 = - 5
solution is (- 1, - 5 )
