Hey there! :)

Answer:

(2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + y = -6

4x + 3y = 2

We can begin by setting the first equation equal to y:

-2x + y = -6

Add 2x to both sides:

y = 2x - 6

Plug this equation for y into the second equation:

4x + 3(2x - 6) = 2

Distribute:

4x + 6x - 18 = 2

Combine like terms:

10x = 20

x = 2

Plug the value of 'x' into an equation to solve for 'y':

-2(2) + y = -6

-4 + y = -6

y = -2

Therefore, the solution is (2, -2)
