Answer:
x = -1
y = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add each linear equation:
Sum: 5x = -5
Divide each side by 5:
Quotient: x = -1.
Substitute x = -1 into the first equation:
4(-1) - y = 5
Solve:
-4 - y = 5
Add 4 to both sides of the equation:
-y = 9
y = -9.
Check with the second equation:
-1 + -9 = -10.
Correct.
