Answer:

x=1 and y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

step one: plug -4x into y in thi]e first equation.

2x+5(-4)= -18

step two: solve for x

2x-20= -18

(add 20 to both sides to eliminate -20 on the right)

2x=2

(divide both sides by 2 to get x by its self)

x=1

step 3: now that we found the value for x plug it in to either equation and solve for y

y= -4x

y= -4(1)

y= -4
