The solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5
<h3>Simultaneous linear equations</h3>
From the question, we are to solve the given system of equations
The given system of equation is
4x+5y=-1
-5x-8y=10
Multiply the <u>first equation</u> by 5 and the <u>second equation</u> by 4
5× (4x+5y=-1)
4× (-5x-8y=10)
20x + 25y = -5
-20x - 32y = 40
------------------------
0x + (-7y) = 35
-7y = 35
y = 35/-7
y = -5
Substitute the value of y into the first equation to find x
4x + 5y = -1
4x + 5(-5) = -1
4x -25 = -1
4x = -1 +25
4x = 24
x = 24/4
x = 6
Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

Add those like terms since they're on the same side and you get 14x
Answer:
- x - 5 = -(x + 5) = (-1)×(x + 5)
