To solve this system of equations, we need to find the values of x and y that satisfy both equations at the same time.

1. Substitute the value of y in the first equation into the second equation:

- x + 5 = 2x - 4

2. Add x to both sides and add 4 to both sides to isolate x:

5 + 4 = 2x + x
9 = 3x

3. Divide by 3 to solve for x:

x = 3

4. Now substitute the value of x back into either equation to solve for y:

y = -3 + 5
y = 2

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations y = -x + 5 and y = 2x - 4 is x = 3 and y = 2.
