Answer:
x=25 and y=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
x+2y=5 ..........(1)
4x+12y=-20.........(2)
using elimination method.
multiply equ(1) by 4 and equ(2) by 1
so we have
x+2y=5..........*4
4x+12y=-20.........*1
4x+8y=20................(3)
4x+12y=-20.............(4)
subtract eq(4) from (3) we have
-4y=40
y=-10
substitute y=-10 in equation (1)
we have:
x+2(-10)=5
x-20=5
x=25
