The expression 4x - 3y - 5x - 2y can be simplified by combining like terms. Like terms have the same variables raised to the same powers. In this case, the x terms are like terms and the y terms are like terms. Combining the x terms, we get -x, and combining the y terms, we get -5y. Therefore, the simplified expression is -x - 5y.
3x-5y=7 5x-2y=-1
2x + 5y = 16 + (-5x) - 2y = 2 That gives 2x + 5y = 2 . . . . . . . . . . (I) and -5x - 2y = - 14 or 5x + 2y = 14 . . . . (II) (I)*5: 10x + 25y = 10 (II)*2: 10x + 4y = 28 Subtracting the second from the first, 21y = -18 so y = -18/21 = -6/7 and then by (I) x = 1 - 5y/2 = 1 - 5/2*(-6/7) = 1 + 15/7 = 22/7 So the ordered pair is (22/7, -6/7)
