Answer:

(-1, -3)

Explanation:

Since the second equation is already solved for y, substitute what y is equal to, x - 2, for y in the first equation. Then solve for x.

2x + 3(x - 2) = -11

2x + 3x - 6 = -11

5x = -5

x = -1

Now substitute -1 for x in the second original equation.

y = x - 2

y = -1 - 2

y = -3

Solution: (-1, -3)
