Answer: \((x, y) = (0, 5)\)

Write the equations as \(5x - 6y = -30\) and \(5x + 4y = 20\).

Ordered pairs for \(5x - 6y = -30\):

\(x\)\(0\)\(-6\)\(6\)
\(y\)\(5\)\(0\)\(10\)
\((x, y)\)\((0, 5)\)\((-6, 0)\)\((6, 10)\)

Ordered pairs for \(5x + 4y = 20\):

\(x\)\(0\)\(4\)\(-4\)
\(y\)\(5\)\(0\)\(10\)
\((x, y)\)\((0, 5)\)\((4, 0)\)\((-4, 10)\)

Plot both sets of points on the same graph paper (scale: 1 cm = 1 unit on both axes) and join each set to get two straight lines. The lines intersect at \((0, 5)\).

Check: \(5(0) + (-6)(5) = -30\) and \(5(0) + 4(5) = 20\) – both true.
