Question
- solve the system of linear equations.
\
Step1: Solve for x from the second equation
From \( x + 5y = -4 \), we get \( x = -4 - 5y \).
Step2: Substitute x into the first equation
Substitute \( x = -4 - 5y \) into \( 3x - 2y = 5 \):
\( 3(-4 - 5y) - 2y = 5 \)
Step3: Simplify and solve for y
Expand: \( -12 - 15y - 2y = 5 \)
Combine like terms: \( -12 - 17y = 5 \)
Add 12 to both sides: \( -17y = 17 \)
Divide by -17: \( y = -1 \)
Step4: Substitute y back to find x
Substitute \( y = -1 \) into \( x = -4 - 5y \):
\( x = -4 - 5(-1) = -4 + 5 = 1 \)

The solution to the system is \( (1, -1) \) (assuming the option \((1,1)\) might be a typo, and the correct solution is \( x = 1, y = -1 \)). If we were to check the options given (maybe for a related problem like finding a value from the solution), but based on solving the system, the solution is \( x = 1 \), \( y = -1 \).
