Y = -3x - 1......so we sub in -3x - 1 in for y in the other equation
2x + 5y = 12
2x + 5(-3x - 1) = 12....now distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
2x - 15x - 5 = 12...add 5 to both sides
2x - 15x = 12 + 5..combine like terms
-13x = 17...divide both sides by -13
x = -17/13
now sub in -17/13 for x in the other equation
y = -3x - 1
y = -3(-17/13) - 1
y = 51/13 - 1
y = 51/13 - 13/13
y = 38/13
so the solution is (-17/13, 38/13)

Determine the coordinates of L
Since T is the midpoint of K and L, we make use of:
and
Solving for 
Multiply through by 2
Solving for 
Multiply through by 2
Hence: The coordinates of L is:
I think it’s -36, not 100% sure though
-3x+6.3=-14.4
-6.3=-6.3
-<u>3x</u>=-<u>20.7</u>
-3 -3
x=6.9
