To make this problem solvable, I have replaced the 't' in the second equation for a 'y'.

Answer:

x = -9

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system:

2x + 3y = -12       [1]

2x + y = -16       [2]

Subtracting [1] and [2]:

3y - y = -12 + 16

2y = 4

y = 4/2 = 2

From [1]:

2x + 3(2) = -12

2x + 6 = -12

2x = -18

x = -18/2 = -9

Solution:

x = -9

y = 2
