Since the slope is 2/3, for every time the x-value increases by 1
the y-value increases by 2/3.
The answer to x is found by finding the difference between 3 and 5, which is 2.
2/3 goes into that 3 times.
So subtract 2 from -2 to get -4.
The x-value is -4.
The answer for the y-value is given earlier:
the original point of (-2,5).
The y-value is 5.
Hope this helps!

Explanation:
The tan of an angle in a triangle is equal to for the side lengths. Opposite side is the one found directly across the triangle and the adjacent is the side touching the angle that is not the hypotenuse. This means the tan for Y is 4 over 5 and the tan for Z is 5 over 4.
5+2 = 7
Add 5 more (1 more magazine) and the total amount equals 12
