Answer:

No solutions

Explanation:

Let's solve your system by elimination.

10x − 9y = −10

20x − 18y = −28

Multiply the first equation by -2, and multiply the second equation by 1.

−2(10x − 9y = −10)

1(20x − 18y = −28)

Becomes:

−20x + 18y = 20

20x − 18y = −28

Add these equations to eliminate x:

0 = −8
