Answer:
(-3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the second equation, we can easily rearrange it to make x the subject.
x - 4y = 5
x = 4y + 5
Now lets put that into the second equation
2x - 2y = -2
2(4y + 5) - 2y = -2
6y + 10 = -2
6y = -12
y = -2
Now lets find x!
x = 4y + 5
x = 4(-2) + 5
x = -3
Now lets format the answer like the question says (ordered pair)
(-3, -2)
Recap: We used substitution and made an equation to work out one of the variables first, then found the second variable using the first.

Answer:
12x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be represented by x.
Then five times the number = 5*x
Seven times the number = 7*x
Sum of 5 times the number minus -2 = ![\[5*x - (-2)\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B5%2Ax%20-%20%28-2%29%5C%5D)
= ![\[5x +2\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B5x%20%2B2%5C%5D)
Adding seven times the number to this expression yields, ![\[5x+2+7x\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B5x%2B2%2B7x%5C%5D)
![\[= (5+7)x+2\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%3D%20%285%2B7%29x%2B2%5C%5D)
![\[= 12x+2\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%3D%2012x%2B2%5C%5D)
So the simplified expression corresponds to 12x + 2.
