Answer:

x = 4, y = 1

(4, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - y = -9

5x -2y = 18

-2x - y = -9

+2x     +2x

-y = 2x - 9

/-1    /-1

y = -2x + 9

5x -2y = 18

5x - 2(-2x + 9) = 18

5x + 4x - 18 = 18

9x - 18 = 18

    + 18   + 18

9x = 36

/9  /9

x = 4

Now, we solve for y:

-2(4) - y = -9

-8 - y = -9

+ 8     +8

-y = -1

/-1  /-1

y = 1

(x, y) -> (4, 1)

Hope this helps!
