Answer :

Answer:

x = 3/26

y = 47/13

Step-by-step explanation:

y= -12x+5

y=14x+2

Since both equations are equal to y, set them equal to each other

-12x+5 =14x+2

Add 12 x to each side

12x -12x+5=14x+2+12x

5 = 26x +2

Subtract 2 from each side

5-2 = 26x

3 = 26x

Divide each side by 26

3/26 =x

Now find y

y =-12x+5

y = -12 (3/26) +5

y = -36/26 +5

y = -18/13 + 5

Getting a common denominator

y = -18/13 + 65/13

y =47/13
