Substitution method is one of the ways to solve this system.

-5x+y=4 and 4x-4y=16.

First we will divide the second equation with number 4 and get

x-y=4 => x=y+4 than we will replace x in the first equation

-5(y+4)+y=4 => -5y-20+y=4 => -4y=4+20 => -4y=24 => y=-6

x-(-6))=4 => x+6=4 => x=4-6=-2 (x,y)=(-2,-6)

Good luck!!!
