Answer:
x = 2, y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x + 5y = 4 → (1)
3x - 5y = 6 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the term in y
(2x + 3x) + (5y - 5y) = (4 + 6), that is
5x = 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting in (1)
2(2) + 5y = 4
4 + 5y = 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
5y = 0 ⇒ y = 0
