• Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

x + 5y = 0

3y + 2x = -21

Step 2: Rewrite Systems

x + 5y = 0

1. Subtract 5y on both sides:          x = -5y

Step 3: Redefine Systems

x = -5y

3y + 2x = -21

Step 4: Solve for y

Substitution

1. Substitute in x:                     3y + 2(-5y) = -21
2. Multiply:                                3y - 10y = -21
3. Combine like terms:             -7y = -21
4. Isolate y:                                y = 3

Step 5: Solve for x

1. Define equation:                    x + 5y = 0
2. Substitute in y:                       x + 5(3) = 0
3. Multiply:                                  x + 15 = 0
4. Isolate x:                                 x = -15
