Answer:
The solution is: (2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we rewrite the second system equation
→ 
Now we have the following system of equations:


To solve the system multiply the first equation by -3 and add it to the second equation


--------------------------------------


Now we substitute the value of y in the first equation and solve for x



The solution is: (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = -5x - 2
f(3) is x = 3
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: f(3) = -5(3) - 2
- Multiply: f(3) = -15 - 2
- Subtract: f(3) = -17
