Answer:
x = -5
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it already gives you the value of y, all you need to do to solve for x, is to plug in the number into the equation, like so:
y = x + 2
-3 = x + 2
Now, subtract 2 from both sides:
-3 = x + 2
-2 - 2
________
-5 = x
So now you have, x = -5 and y = -3
So you first set them equal to each other I pretty sure...
x+2=-3
Then you solve so...
x+2=-3 (bring the two over)
x=-3-2 (you add and keep the negative sign)
x=-5
Let me know how this works out!
