    A) (20, 0)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Double the second equation and add that to the first:

    (0.2x + 0.5y) + 2 (-0.1x + 0.3y) = (4) + 2 (-2)

    1.1y = 0

    y = 0

    Substitute this value into either equation to find x.

    0.2x + 0.5·0 = 4

    x = 4/0.2 = 20

    The solution is (x, y) = (20, 0).
