Is this a system of equations?

2X + 5Y = 4

X + 5Y = 7

solve for X using bottom equation

X = 5Y - 7

insert into top equation

2(5Y - 7) + 5Y = 4

distribute

10Y - 14 + 5Y = 4

solve for Y

15Y = 18

Y = 18/15 = 6/5

use bottom equation to find X

X +5(6/5) = 7

X = 1

check with bottom equation

1 + 5(6/5) = 7

7 = 7

not true for top equation

How would 2x plus 5y plus 30 equals 0 be worked out?

2X+5Y+30=0 So you subtract 30 from each side. 2X+5Y+30-30=0-30. So you know 2X+5Y=-30. now there are many different possibilities for X and Y unless there is a specification. here are some possibilities=X=0,Y=6 or X=A5,Y=0 or X=5,Y=4
