To solve the simultaneous equation, we can use the elimination method:

1. Multiply the second equation by -2 to eliminate the y term:

-4x - 4y = -28

2. Add the first equation to the new equation to eliminate the y term:

5x - 2y = 14
-4x - 4y = -28
------------------
x = -2

3. Substituting x = -2 into either of the original equations, we can solve for y:

5x - 2y = 14
5(-2) - 2y = 14
-10 - 2y = 14
-2y = 24
y = -12

So the solution to the simultaneous equation is x = -2, y = -12.
