5x+2y=-4 -x+2y=8 Solve the system

Mathematics

Subtract the second equation from the first.
.. (5x +2y) -(-x +2y) = (-4) -(8)
.. 6x = -12
.. x = -2

.. -(-2) +2y = 8
.. 2y = 6
.. y = 3

The solution is (x, y) = (-2, 3).

1. The ordered pair (-1, -1) is a solution of the system -4x + 2y = 2 and x + y = -2.
Nastasia [14]
1: (-1,-1) is (x, y) to see if it is a solution, you would just plug in x and y and see if the equation is true.
-4 (-1) + 2(-1) = 2
4 + -2 = 2
2 = 2 CORRECT
So... plug in x and y in the second equation to Make sure it works for that one too.
-1 + -1 = -2
-2 = -2 CORRECT
So, yes. (-1,-1) is a solution to both equations.
