Since y=-3x -2 we shall replace this value of y in the second equation to get .. 5x+2(-3x-2) =5x-6x-4 =-x-4,take the -4 to the other side and so we shall have -x=4 ,divide both sides by -1 to get x=-4 So we shall go back to our first equation and replace x with the value we have so we shall get... Y=-3(-4) -2 Y= 10
