Answer:
(-1,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equations is;
[tex]y=-5x-8...(1)[/tex]
and
[tex]y=4x+1...(2)[/tex]
Let us equate the two equations to get;
[tex]4x+1=-5x-8[/tex]
Group similar terms;
[tex]4x+5x=-8-1[/tex]
Simplify;
[tex]9x=-9[/tex]
Divide both sides by 9.
[tex]x=-1[/tex]
Put x=-1, into any of the equations, say (2);
[tex]y=4(-1)+1[/tex]
[tex]y=-4+1[/tex]
[tex]y=-3[/tex]
The solution is;
(-1,-3)
