Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To solve the system of equations by elimination, we can first simplify the second equation by dividing every term by 6, which gives us $x + y = -5$. Subtracting this equation from the first equation ($x + 5y = -25$) eliminates $x$, leading to $4y = -20$, which simplifies to $y = -5$. Substituting $y = -5$ into one of the original equations, for example, $x + 5(-5) = -25$, gives $x = 0$. Therefore, the solution is $(0, -5)$.
