The values of x and y are -6 and 30 respectively .

Using the system of equation:

  • 5x + y = 0 ___(1)
  • 5x + 2y = 30 ___(2)

From (1)

y = -5x ___(3)

substitute (3) into (2)

5x + 2(-5x) = 30

5x - 10x = 30

-5x = 30

x = -6

From (3)

y = -5(-6)

y = 30

The values of x and y are -6 and 30 respectively .
