Answer:
4 x minus 5 y = negative 5 and 3 x + 10 y = negative 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations
4 x - 5 y = 5 (red)
3 x + 10 y = 20 (blue)
4 x - 5 y = -5 (green)
3 x + 10 y = -20 (purple)
are shown in the picture attached. As we can see there, the point (–2.7, –1.2) is on the intersection of the purple and green lines. Therefore is the solution of the system:
4 x - 5 y = -5
3 x + 10 y = -20
