Solve the system of equations.

-5x=10

-5x+2y=0

Determine the value of y.

I will solve your system by substitution. - 5x = 10; - 5x + 2y = 0 Solve - 5x = 10 for x: - 5x - 5 = 10 - 5

(Divide both sides by - 5) x = - 2 Substitute - 2 for x in - 5x + 2y = 0 : - 5x + 2y = 0 (-5) (-2) + 2y = 0 2y + 10 = 0 (Simplify both sides of the equation) 2y + 10 + - 10 = 0 + - 10 (Add - 10 to both sides) 2y = - 10 2y 2 = - 10 2 y = - 5

Your Answer is: The Value of X is - 2 and The Value of Y is - 5

I think that the value of y is 5
