Answer:

c. negative 19 / 2 , negative 33 / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x − y = 7

y = 3x + 12

Substitute y = 3x + 12 into x − y = 7

x − (3x + 12)  = 7

x - 3x - 12 = 7

-2x - 12 = 7

-2x = 19

  x = -19/2

Substitute x = -5/2 into x − y = 7

-19/2 − y = 7

y = -19/2 - 7

y = - 5/2 - 14/2

y = -33/2

Answer:

x = -19/2, y = -33/2
