1 answer

Let's solve the equations step by step.

You have two equations:

  1. \( y = -3 \)
  2. \( x = -9y - 5 \)

Step 1: Substitute \( y = -3 \) into the second equation.

\[ x = -9(-3) - 5 \]

Step 2: Simplify the expression.

\[ x = 27 - 5 \] \[ x = 22 \]

Now, we have the values for \( x \) and \( y \):

  • \( x = 22 \)
  • \( y = -3 \)

So, the final answers are:

\[ x = 22 \] \[ y = -3 \]
