You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x+2y=-1
4x-4y=20
---------------------------
And? If you want to solve for x & y, you should say, "Solve for x & y"
=================
x+2y=-1
4x-4y=20 ---> x - y = 5
--------
x + 2y=-1
x - y = 5
--------------------------- Subtract
3y = -6
y = -2
===============
x - y = 5
x + 2 = 5
x = 3
