Answer:
x=-2, y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
make it easy first, solve for x in the second equation: x= -5+y.
then sub that in for the other x: 2(-5+y)+y= -1
now combine like terms: -10+3y= -1
solve for y: 3y=9, y= 3
then replace y for your second equation: x-3= -5
solve for x= -5+3.... so then its -2
check by replacing all variables with your new solutions:
2(-2), which is -4+3 does equal -1
(-2) -3 does equal -5.
your answers are x=-2, y=3
