    3x + 4y = - 30 - - - (1)

    385x - 5y = - 30 - - - (2)

    equation (1) times 5 on each side---

    (3x + 4y) * 5=-30*5

    15x+20y=-150 - - - (3)

    equation (2) times 4 on each side---

    (385x - 5y) * 4 = - 30*4

    1540x-20y=-120 - - - (4)

    If u add equation 3 and 4,

    (15x+20y) + (1540x-20y) = (-150) + (-120)

    1555x=-270

    ∴x=-270/1555
