$3x+3=-2x-12$
Add 2x
$3x+3+2x=-12$
$5x+3=-12$
Subtract 3
$5x=-12-3$
$5x=-15$
Divide by 5
$x= \frac{-15}{5}$
$x=-3$
The answer is: -3

Solve by using elimination.express answer as an ordered pair 2x-5y=-7 5x-3y=11

jonny [76]

$2x-5y=-7 \ \ \ \ \ \ |\times (-5) \\
5x-3y=11 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\times 2 \\ \\
-10x+25y=35 \\
\underline{10x-6y=22 \ \ \ \ \ \ } \\
25y-6y=35+22 \\
19y=57 \\
y=\frac{57}{19} \\
y=3 \\ \\
2x-5y=-7 \\
2x-5 \times 3 =-7 \\
2x-15=-7 \\
2x=-7+15 \\
2x=8 \\
x=\frac{8}{2} \\
x=4 \\ \\ \boxed{(x,y)=(4,3)}$
