Hello!

Let's solve this question by using elimination.

5x + 10y = 7

4x + 8y = 3

Let us solve for "y" first by making our "x" variables cancel each other out.

4(5x + 10y = 7)

-5(4x + 8y = 3)

20x + 40y = 28

-20x -40y = -15

0 = 13

Since both the "x" and "y" variables were canceled out after trying to eliminate one of the variables, we can't find a solution since we now have no variables to solve for, therefore there is no solution.

Answer: No solutions
