Respuesta :

D. (-2,-1)

Hope it helps you.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 2x + 3 → (1)

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x - 2 → (2)

Since both equations express y in terms of x, equate the right sides

2x + 3 = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x- 2

Multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction

4x + 6 = - x - 4 ( add x to both sides )

5x + 6 = - 4 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

5x = - 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 2(- 2) + 3 = - 4 + 3 = - 1

Solution is (- 2, - 1 ) → D
