I NEED HELP!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. substitute x = 4+2y in the first equation: $\begin{bmatrix}2\left(4+2y\right)+y=-7\end{bmatrix}$

simplify it : $\begin{bmatrix}8+5y=-7\end{bmatrix}$

2. isolate y in 8 + 5y = -7 --> 5y = -7 - 8 -->

3. solve for y:  5y = -15 --> y = -15/5 --> y= -3

4. solve for x: x = 4 + 2y

x = 4 + 2(-3)

x = 4 + (-6)

x = -2
