heuristics
There are several methods. 1. graphing, then find the intersection. 2. Substitution (take one equation and solve for one variable, substitute that into the 2nd equation) 3. Elimination. Arrange both equations in standard form, arrange so that the coefficients on one of the variables are the same and subtract the 2 equations. 4. Cramer's rule, use matrices to solve.
Use the commutative rule in math. If you do something to one side of the equation, you must do the same to the other side. Divide both sides by 2500 to get x = 5/2500, reduce the fraction to get the answer.
Oh, what a lovely question! To solve by Cramer's rule, you'll first calculate the determinant of the coefficient matrix, then create matrices by replacing the x-column with the constants and solving for the determinant of that matrix. Finally, you'll divide these determinants to find the values of x and y. Just like painting a happy little tree, take your time and follow each step with care.
If you do -5+-5 you get -10 which is not a positive number. If you subtract two negative numbers you could get a positive depending on what number you are subtracting. E.G. -5 - -9 =4 which is positive. A good rule a thumb is -- goes up +- goes down.
heuristics
A heuristic is a mental shortcut or rule of thumb used to make decisions or solve problems more quickly, although it may not always lead to the most accurate or optimal outcome. Heuristics are commonly used in decision-making when faced with complex or uncertain situations.

"Rule of Thumb" means a rule or principle that provides guidance to appropriate behavior.
The rule of thumb is not intended to be accurate or reliable for every given situation. When a person is doing something by the rule of thumb, they are taking an educated guess.

A misspelled "Rule of Thumb"
Perhaps you're thinking of the phrase, "rule of thumb".
A useful principle but not intended to be reliable in every situation. Meaning the situation applies to everything because long ago the rule of thumb meant 1 inch equals your top of your thumb, so thats the rule of thumb. Over the years it has taken a more figurative meaning.
The general rule of thumb is that you should be able to see the tires of the car in front of you touching the pavement.
there was a time when 1 inch was the 'rule of thumb' probably 25mm now
