Solve using substitution.

x + 5y = - 19

x - 5y = 1

Submit

(-9,-2)

x = - 9

y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+5y=-19

x-5y=1

solve the equation

x+5y=-19

x=1+5y

substitute the value of x into an equation

1+5y+5y=-19

add 5y to 5y

1+10y=-19

subtract 1 to - 19

10y=-20

divide both sides by 10

y = - 2

substitute the value of y into an equation

x=1+5• (-2)

multiply 5 to - 2

1+-10

add 1 to - 10 but since 10 is a negative the equation is subtraction.

x = - 9
