Answer:
x = -1
y = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y = 3x - 5
y = 2x - 6
By substitution . Substituting 2x - 6 for y in the first equation, we have
2x - 6 = 3x - 5
Combine like terms
5 - 6 = 3x - 2x
-1 = x
x = -1
Substitute -1 for x in any of the equations to get y.
Using equation 1 ,
We have
y = 3(-1) - 5
y = -3 -5
y = -8
Therefore y = -8 and
x = -1
