Question

$$x+2y+1=0; 2x-3y-12=0x$$

Answer

x=3;y=-2

Solution


Solve for \(x\) in \(x+2y+1=0\).
\[x=-2y-1\]
Substitute \(x=-2y-1\) into \(2x-3y-12=0x\).
\[-7y-14=0\]
Solve for \(y\) in \(-7y-14=0\).
\[y=-2\]
Substitute \(y=-2\) into \(x=-2y-1\).
\[x=3\]
Therefore,
\[\begin{aligned}&x=3\\&y=-2\end{aligned}\]
