Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question! Hope your day is going well!

Since they are linear equations, I will assume that you do not mean exponents.

y=15-x

y=4x.

Let's subsitute y=4x into the first equation

y=15-x

4x=15-x

3x=15

x=5.

Let's substitute x=5 into y=4x

y=4(5)=20.

Thus, our answer is (5,20).
