use elimination or substitution
i got x=2. first of all if using elim. distribute 2 to 3x-2y=12. so youd have 5x+4y=-2 6x-4y=24 11x=22 x=2
multiply second equation by 2 then add solve for x then plug into one of equations to gert y
to find y, plug in x=2 to an equation. 10+4y=-2, 4y=-12 y=-3
2,-3 is correct
