Answer:

x = -2, y =-2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6y = 2

-5x - 5y = 20

Add the two equations together to eliminate x

5x - 6y = 2

-5x - 5y = 20

------------------------

-11y = 22

Divide by -11

-11y/-11 = 22/-11

y = -2

Now we can find x

5x -6(-2) =2

5x +12 = 2

Subtract 12 from each side

5x +12-12 =2-12

5x = -10

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -10/5

x = -2
