    Substitute the first equation into the second equation. You will get:

    4x - (2x - 5) = 7

    Distribute the negative sign into the parenthesis:

    4x - 2x + 5 = 7

    Simplify

    2x + 5 = 7

    Subtract 5 on both sides

    2x = 2

    x = 1

    Now, substitute x = 1 into the first equation:

    y = 2 (1) - 5

    y = 2 - 5

    y = - 3

    The solution to the system of equations is (1, - 3).
