The solution to the given expression is (-2, 4)

System of equation

This are equations that consists of several equations and unknowns.

Given the system of equations below

2x + 5y = 16

-5x - 2y = 2

Using the elimination method

10x +25y = 80
-10x - 4y = 4

Add

25y - 4y = 84
21y = 84

y =4

Recall

-5x - 2y = 2

-5x - 8 = 2

-5x = 10
x = -2

Hence the solution to the given expression is (-2, 4)
