Hmm.... well since there isnt really a question and you just need to solve it... I would plug in zero for either x or y. So If i plug in zero for x, what would be the answer for y?

Nope. Okay this is what the equation would look like 2(0)-5y=20 0-5y=20 -5y=20 y=-4 Now plug in -4 for y in the equation again 2x-5(-4)=20 What is the answer for x?
