Answer:

x= 4

y= -2

Explanation:

$-3y+5x=26\\-2y-5x=-16$

Solve by using the Elimination Method.

$-5y=10\\\\(-5y)/(-5) =(10)/(-5) \\\\y=-2$

Now plug y into one of the original equation.

=======================================

-2y-5x=-16

(-2*-2)-5x=-16

4-5x=-16

4-5x+5x=-16+5x

4+16=-16+5x+16

$20=5x\\\\(20)/(5) =(5x)/(5) \\\\x=4$

=======================================

$\left \{ {{x=4} \atop {y=-2}} \right.$
