Answer:

The solution to the system of equation


y=10,\:x=-5

Explanation:

Given the system of equation


\begin{bmatrix}y+3x=-5\\ y-4x=30\end{bmatrix}

Arrange equation variables for elimination


\begin{bmatrix}y+3x=-5\\ y-4x=30\end{bmatrix}

subtracting the equation


y-4x=30


-


\underline{y+3x=-5}


-7x=35


\begin{bmatrix}y+3x=-5\\ -7x=35\end{bmatrix}

solve -7x = 35 for x


-7x=35

divide both sides by -7


(-7x)/(-7)=(35)/(-7)


x=-5

For y + 3x = -5 plug in x = -5


y+3\left(-5\right)=-5


y-15=-5

Add 15 to both sides


y-15+15=-5+15

Simplify


y=10

Therefore, the solution to the system of equation


y=10,\:x=-5
