To solve the system of equations by substitution, we start with the given equations:

1. \(-5y - 10 = x\) (we can rearrange this to express \(x\) in terms of \(y\))
2. \(x + 9y = -2\)

From equation 1, we can express \(x\) as:
\[
x = -5y - 10
\]

Now, we can substitute this expression for \(x\) into equation 2:
\[
(-5y - 10) + 9y = -2
\]

Now, simplify the left side:
\[
-5y - 10 + 9y = -2
\]
Combine like terms:
\[
(9y - 5y) - 10 = -2
\]
\[
4y - 10 = -2
\]

Next, add 10 to both sides:
\[
4y = -2 + 10
\]
\[
4y = 8
\]

Now, divide by 4:
\[
y = 2
\]

Now that we have \(y\), we will substitute it back into the equation for \(x\):
\[
x = -5(2) - 10
\]
\[
x = -10 - 10
\]
\[
x = -20
\]

So, the solution to the system of equations is:
\[
(x, y) = (-20, 2)
\]

To verify our solution, we can substitute \(x = -20\) and \(y = 2\) back into the original equations:

1. For the first equation:
\[
-5(2) - 10 = -20 \quad \text{(True)}
\]
2. For the second equation:
\[
-20 + 9(2) = -20 + 18 = -2 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

Both equations are satisfied, confirming that the solution is correct.

Final answer:
\[
(x, y) = (-20, 2)
\]

To solve the system of equations by substitution, we start with the given equations:

1. \(-4x + 6y = -10\)
2. \(x = 2y + 4\)

Since the second equation already expresses \(x\) in terms of \(y\), we can substitute this expression for \(x\) into the first equation.

**Substituting \(x\) in the first equation:**
\[
-4(2y + 4) + 6y = -10
\]

**Expanding the equation:**
\[
-8y - 16 + 6y = -10
\]

**Combining like terms:**
\[
-8y + 6y - 16 = -10
\]
\[
-2y - 16 = -10
\]

**Adding 16 to both sides:**
\[
-2y = -10 + 16
\]
\[
-2y = 6
\]

**Dividing both sides by -2:**
\[
y = -3
\]

Now that we have \(y\), we will substitute it back into the equation for \(x\):
\[
x = 2(-3) + 4
\]
\[
x = -6 + 4
\]
\[
x = -2
\]

So, the solution to the system of equations is:
\[
(x, y) = (-2, -3)
\]

**Verification:**

To verify our solution, we can substitute \(x = -2\) and \(y = -3\) back into the original equations:

1. For the first equation:
\[
-4(-2) + 6(-3) = 8 - 18 = -10 \quad \text{(True)}
\]
2. For the second equation:
\[
-2 = 2(-3) + 4 = -6 + 4 = -2 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

Both equations are satisfied, confirming that the solution is correct.

**Final answer:**
\[
(x, y) = (-2, -3)
\]

To solve the system of equations:

1. \( y = x^2 - x - 65 \)
2. \( y = -x - 1 \)

we can set the two equations equal to each other since they both equal \(y\):

\[
x^2 - x - 65 = -x - 1
\]

Next, we'll add \(x + 1\) to both sides to eliminate the right-hand side:

\[
x^2 - x + x - 65 + 1 = 0
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
x^2 - 64 = 0
\]

Now, we can factor or solve this quadratic equation. This can be factored as follows:

\[
(x - 8)(x + 8) = 0
\]

Setting each factor equal to zero gives us two solutions for \(x\):

\[
x - 8 = 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = 8
\]
\[
x + 8 = 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = -8
\]

Now that we have the \(x\) values, we can find the corresponding \(y\) values by substituting each \(x\) back into either original equation. We'll use the second equation for simplicity:

For \(x = 8\):
\[
y = -8 - 1 = -9
\]

For \(x = -8\):
\[
y = -(-8) - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7
\]

**Thus, the two solutions are:**
1. \( (8, -9) \)
2. \( (-8, 7) \)

So the final answer includes both solutions:
\[
(8, -9) \quad \text{and} \quad (-8, 7)
\]

To solve the system of equations:

1. \( y = x^2 - 7x - 7 \)
2. \( y = -3x - 2 \)

we can set the two expressions for \(y\) equal to each other since both equations are equal to \(y\):

\[
x^2 - 7x - 7 = -3x - 2
\]

Next, let's move all terms to one side of the equation:

\[
x^2 - 7x + 3x - 7 + 2 = 0
\]

Combine like terms:

\[
x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0
\]

Now we can factor this quadratic equation:

\[
(x - 5)(x + 1) = 0
\]

Setting each factor equal to zero gives us the solutions for \(x\):

1. \( x - 5 = 0 \) → \( x = 5 \)
2. \( x + 1 = 0 \) → \( x = -1 \)

Now, we can find the corresponding \(y\) values by substituting each \(x\) value back into either original equation. We'll use the second equation for simplicity:

For \(x = 5\):
\[
y = -3(5) - 2 = -15 - 2 = -17
\]

For \(x = -1\):
\[
y = -3(-1) - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1
\]

**Thus, the two solutions are:**
1. \( (5, -17) \)
2. \( (-1, 1) \)

So the final answer with both solutions is:
\[
(5, -17) \quad \text{and} \quad (-1, 1)
\]
