2) \\begin{cases} y = -12 \\\\ y = -5x - 2 \\end{cases}

Question

  1. \
$$\begin{cases} y = -12 \\\\ y = -5x - 2 \\end{cases}$$

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute y = -12 into the second equation

$-12 = -5x - 2$

Step2: Isolate the term with x

$-12 + 2 = -5x$
$-10 = -5x$

Step3: Solve for x

$x = \frac{-10}{-5}$
$x = 2$

Answer:

$x=2$, $y=-12$
