Answer:

(2, 2 )

Explanation:

To find a solution, choose any value for x, substitute into the equation and solve for y.

Choose x = 2, then

- 2 - 4y = - 10 ( add 2 to both sides )

- 4y = - 8 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

y = 2

Thus (2, 2 ) is a solution to the equation

Yo sup??

this equation doesn't has a particular solution.

there are infinite number of solutions possible.

one soultion can be obtained when x=0

0-4y=-10

y=2.5

therefore the solution is (0,2.5)

Hope this helps
