For this case we have the following system of equations:

[tex]-2x + 5y = -3\\y-15 = 3x[/tex]

We multiply the second equation by -5:

[tex]-5y + 75 = -15x[/tex]

Now we add the equations:

[tex]-2x-5y + 5y + 75 = -3-15x\\-2x + 75 = -3-15x\\-2x + 15x = -75-3\\13x = -78\\x = \frac {-78} {13}\\x = -6[/tex]

We find the value of the variable "y":

[tex]y = 3x + 15\\y = 3 (-6) +15\\y = -18 + 15\\y = -3[/tex]

THE solution is: (-6, -3)

Answer:

(-6, -3)
