Answer:
The solution is (-6, 30)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have two separate equations for y and are to find the solution (x, y).
y = 2x + 42
y = -5x
First, equate y = 2x + 42 and y = -5x:
2x + 42 = -5x
Combining like terms, we get
7x = -42, which results in x = -6
Since y = -5x, y = -5(-6), or y = 30, when x = -6.
The solution is (-6, 30)
