    Substitution

    2x - 3y = - 5

    +3y + 3y

    2x=-5 + 3y

    divide both sides by 2

    x = - 2.5 + 1.5y

    16 - 5x = 2y

    16 - 5 (-2.5 + 1.5y) = 2y

    16 - 12.5 + 7.5y = 2y

    3.5 + 7.5y = 2y

    -7.5y - 7.5y

    3.5 = - 5.5y

    divide both sides by - 5.5

    y = - 0.54 repeating and then you substitute that for y into either equation to figure out what x is. Sorry, my math might be wrong, I'm a middle schooler so uhh yeah
