### Solving a System of Differential Equations by Systematic Elimination

Consider the following system of differential equations:

\[
(2D^2 - D - 1)x - (2D + 1)y = 5
\]

\[
(D - 1)x + Dy = -5
\]

where \( x(t) \) and \( y(t) \) are the functions to be determined, and \(D\) is the differential operator \(\frac{d}{dt}\).

**Objective:**
To solve this system of differential equations using systematic elimination.

**Steps to be Followed:**

1. **Identify and Isolate the Differential Operators:**
   - The given equations involve differential operators applied to \(x\) and \(y\). 

2. **Combine and Eliminate Variables:**
   - Systematic elimination will involve algebraic manipulation to combine the equations and eliminate one of the variables, simplifying the problem into a single differential equation.

3. **Solving the Reduced Equations:**
   - The reduced equation can then be solved using standard techniques for solving differential equations, such as integrating factors or characteristic equations.

4. **Substitute to Find the Second Function:**
   - Once one function is determined, substitute it back into one of the original equations to solve for the other function.

**Result:**

The solution to the system will be functions \( x(t) \) and \( y(t) \) expressed as:

\[
(x(t), y(t)) = \begin{pmatrix} \text{solution for } x(t) \\ \text{solution for } y(t) \end{pmatrix}
\]

This system requires careful manipulation and integration, making it a good example of advanced techniques in solving differential equations.

Make sure to approach each step methodically, verifying your results at each stage to ensure accuracy.
