Answer:

(9/4, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know the y-coordinate of the solution:  It is y = -1/2.  To find the x-coordinate, we substitute -1/2 for y in y = 2x - 5:

-1/2 = 2x - 5

Clearing out fractions, we multiply all three terms by 2:

-1 = 4x - 10, or

4x = 9

Then x = 9/4

The solution is (9/4, -1/2)
