Answer:

(2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = -2

3x - 2y = 12

Add the two equations to eliminate y

2x + 2y = -2

3x - 2y = 12

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

5x = 10

5x/5 = 10/5

x = 2

Now find y

2x+2y = -2

2(2)+2y = -2

4+2y = -2

Subtract 4 from each side

4-4 +2y = -2-4

2y = -6

Divide by 2

2y/2 = -6/2

y = -3
