Answer:


x= -(12)/(25)


y= (26)/(25)

Step-by-step explanation:

5-10x + 5y = 15

1 9x + 3y = -6

To solve these two equations simultaneously:


5y - 10x =10 ; divide by 5


y - 2x =2


y =2 + 2x ; Taking 2x to the other side.

Substituting for y in the other equation


19x + 3y = -6


19x + 3 * (2 + 2x)= -6


19x + 6 + 6x = -6


25x = -12 ; Making necessary commutations.


x= -(12)/(25)

Substituting this in
y =2 + 2x to find y


y =2 + 2 * (-(12)/(25))


y= (26)/(25)
