USING A GRAPHING METHOD TO SOLVCE WE GET
2X+Y=-4, Y=-2X-4
5X+3Y=-6, 3Y=-5X-6, Y=-5X/3-6/3, Y=-5X/3-2
NOW WE PLOT:
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-8%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+12%2C+y+=+-2x+-4%2C+y+=+-5x%2F3+-2%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -8 to 5, y from -10 to 12, y = -2x -4 and y = -5x/3 -2).
FROM THIS GRAPH IT APPEARS TO HAVE 1 SOLUTION (-6,8).
