To solve the first equation, we need to isolate the variable "k". We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by -2:
-2k/-2 = 13/-2
This simplifies to:
k = -6.5
Now, let's use this value of k to solve the second equation:
k + m = 8
Substituting -6.5 for k:
-6.5 + m = 8
To isolate the variable "m", we can add 6.5 to both sides of the equation:
-6.5 + 6.5 + m = 8 + 6.5
This simplifies to:
m = 14.5
So the solutions to the system of equations are k = -6.5 and m = 14.5.
