I think you want me to find x and y. We need to rearrange the equations.
2x+5y= -1
Subtract 5y on both sides.
2x= -5y-1
Divide everything by 2.
x= -2.5y-0.5
Now, we have what equals x. Plug that in.
4(-2.5y-0.5)+ 5y= -13
Distribute.
-10y-2+5y= -13
Combine like terms.
-5y-2= 13
Add 2 to both sides.
-5y= 15
Divide by -5.
y=-3
Now, plug that in for x.
4x+5(-3)= -13
4x-15= -13
Add 15 on both sides.
4x= 2
Divide by 4.
x=0.5
We can check this.
4(0.5)+5(-3)=-13
2-15= -13
-13=-13
(0.5, -3)
I hope this helps!
