5y + 4x = -41
what are you solving for?
copy the complete problem from your book
there isn't anything to solve for above, unless
5y + 4x = -41
5y = -41 - 4x
y = (-41 - 4x)/5
4x = -41 - 5y
x = (-41 - 5y)/4
is this what you want
there is nothing else to solve for
5y+4x=-41 I believe this is the correct problem. Thank you. Sorry for the error.

Thank you so very much. Actually, there was something to solve for but the problem as it was written was not written completely down, so it left a gap in the way it was supposed to be solved. Thank you, for your help and your patience.
4x+5y=4, 8x+10y=8
