2x=7
Consider the second equation. Add 7 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{7}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
2\times \frac{7}{2}+5y=0
Consider the first equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.
7+5y=0
Multiply 2 and \frac{7}{2} to get 7.
5y=-7
Subtract 7 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
y=-\frac{7}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=\frac{7}{2} y=-\frac{7}{5}
The system is now solved.
