\begin{gathered} \text{Given} \\ y=x+5 \\ 4x+y=20 \end{gathered}

1. Substitute the value of y from the first equation to the second equation

4x + x+5 = 20 (First fill in the blank)

2. Solve for x

4x + x + 5 = 20

5x + 5 = 20

5x = 20 - 5

5x = 15

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 3

3. Substitute x = 3 to the original equation

y = x+5

y = 3 + 5

y = 8

4. Therefore, the solution of the system of equation is (3,8) (second fill in the blank)
