Answer:

x=  -9       y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

  2x-3y=-6

+ -2x-2y=26

_____________

         -5y=20

Step 2:

Get y by itself by dividing -5 on both sides

20/-5=-4

Therefore, y= -4

Step 3:

Plug -4 into the y for the first equation to get the number for x

2x-3(-4)=-6

2x+12=-6

2x= -18

x= -9
