Answer:

The solution of the system will be:
x=0, y= -5

Explanation:

The given system of equation is......


14x-35=7y ...................................(1)\\ \\ -25-6x=5y..................................(2)

First, solving for
y in the equation (1) ........


(14x-35)/(7)= (7y)/(7) \\ \\ y=2x-5

Now, substituting this
y=2x-5 into equation (2), we will get........


-25-6x=5(2x-5)\\ \\ -25-6x=10x-25\\ \\ -25+25=10x+6x\\ \\ 0=16x\\ \\ x=(0)/(16)=0

Plugging
x=0 into
y=2x-5, we will get.......


y=2(0)-5= -5

So, the solution of the system will be:
x=0, y= -5
