Substitute y=−10: Substitute y=−10 into the first equation 4x+5y=−10.Calculation: 4x+5(−10)=−10Simplify the equation.4x−50=−10
Isolate variable term x: Isolate the variable term x. Add 50 to both sides of the equation. 4x−50+50=−10+504x=40
Solve for x: Solve for x.Divide both sides by 4.44x=440x=10
Find ordered pair solution: We found:x=10y=−10What is the solution in the form of an ordered pair?Substitute x=10 and y=−10 into (x,y).The solution is (10,−10).
