Answer:

The solution is (0, 4)

Explanation:

Please pay attention to the first two equations and drop the last two:

12x−5y=−20 y=x+4 x=x=x, equals y=y=y should ideally be:

12x−5y=−20

y=x+4

Let's find x. Substitute x + 4 for y in the first equation, obtaining:

12x - 5(x + 4) = -20

Carrying out the indicated multiplication, we get:

12x - 5x - 20 = -20, or 7x = 0

If x = 0 then y must be 0 + 4, or 4.

The solution is (0, 4)
