Given the system of equations, what is the solution? 2x + y = -1 x - y = -5 {(-8, -3)} {(2, 7)} {(-2, 3)}

Option C is correct

Solution for the given equation is ( -2 , 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equation:

2x+ y = -1                      ......[1]

x- y = -5                        .....[2]

we can rewrite equation [2] as;

y = x+5                        ......[3]

Substitute equation [3] in [1] we have;

2x + x +5  = -1

Combine like terms;

3x + 5 = - 1

Subtract 5 to both sides of an equation:

3x + 5 -5 = -1 -5

Simplify:

3x = -6

Divide both sides by 3 we get;

Simplify:

x = -2

Substitute the value of x in equation [3] we get

y= x + 5

y = -2 +5 = 3

Therefore, the value of x = -2 and y = 3

hence, the solution for the given equation is ( -2 , 3)

1 is b and 2 is d
