It’s -4 because you need to like distribute then add like terms, etc.

Subsitution
2y-x=5
minus 2y both sides
-x=5-2y
times -2 both sides
x=2y-5
subsitute 2y-5 for x in other equation
(2y-5)²+y²-25=0
expand
4y²-20y+25+y²-25=0
5y²-20y=0
factor
5y(y-4)=0
set to zero
5y=0
y=0
y-4=0
y=4
subsitute back
for y=0
x=2y-5
x=2(0)-5
x=-5
one solution is (-5,0)
for x=4
x=2y-5
x=2(4)-5
x=8-5
x=3
one solution is (3,4)
the 2 soltuions are (-5,0) and (3,4)
Francisco's wrapping paper measurements
13 2/3×2=27 1/3
17×2=34
Monica's wrapping paper measurements
basically Monica's measurements are 2× more than Francisco's, so if 2 of the sides equal 34 inches each the other 2 sides are 27 1/3 each
