Answer:
We will use substitution to solve the system. Step 1 is partially complete.
[tex]y = -2x - 9\\6x - 5y = -19\\\\6x - 5(-2x - 9) = -19\\\\6x + 10x + 45 = -19\\\\16x + 45 = -19\\\\16x = -64\\\\x = -4[/tex]
We will now use what we got for x to solve for y in one of the original equations.
[tex]6(-4) - 5y = -19\\\\-24 - 5y = -19\\\\-5y = 5\\\\y = -1[/tex]
The solution is (-4, -1).
