Answer:
x=-22/4
y=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-2y=-5
4x+2y=-16
we <u>add</u> the equation
7y=-21
y=-3
then we find the x by taking a random equation
I take 4x+2y=-16
4x+2(-3)=-16
4x-6=-16
4x=-22
x=-22/4
Just substitute in the number 3 for x then subtract 3 at both sides and youll have y=7

Oh Foxy, Foxy, how totally debilitated you must be ! Try to relax. Nobody
enjoys a painful brain, and believe me, this problem is not worth it.
Let me put it to you this way: What if the problem said . . .
-- Demarcus has $8 more than his sister.
-- His sister has $4.
-- How much money ' M ' does Demarcus have ?
If your brain didn't hurt, you could quickly solve this right in there.
You would know that Demarcus' money ' M ' = 8 + 4 .
That's <em>almost </em>exactly what the problem <em>does</em> say.
Except it doesn't say he has "$8 more than his sister",
it says he has "at least" that much.
So you know that ' M ' is not exactly = 8 + 4, but that's the <u>least</u> it could be.
The actual amount of ' M ' is <u>more</u> than that.
Surely you can handle it from here, even with half of your brain
tied behind your back.
Take a good hard look at ' A ', and then go lie down.
