Answer :

Answer:

 A. x = -1, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want an approximate solution to the system of equations ...

  • y = -2x -5
  • y = 2x -2

Graph

A graph of the two equations shows you the solution lies in the 3rd quadrant (eliminating choices B and D), and has x-value greater than -1, and y-value between -3 and -4.

Of the offered choices, the closest "solution" is (x, y) = (-1, -2), choice A.
