Answer:

y = [tex]-9 \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

9x-4y = 20

Given that x = -2

Putting in the above equation

9(-2) -4y = 20

-18 - 4y = 20

-4y = 20+18

-4y = 38

Dividing both sides by -4

y = [tex]-\frac{38}{4}[/tex]

y = [tex]-\frac{19}{2}[/tex]

y = [tex]-9 \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
