Solution Steps

Step 1: Rewrite the system of equations

The given system of equations is: \[ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 12 \\ 5x + y &= 0 \end{aligned} \]

Step 2: Solve for \( y \) in both equations

From the first equation: \[ y = 12 - x \]

From the second equation: \[ y = -5x \]

Step 3: Set the two expressions for \( y \) equal to each other

\[ 12 - x = -5x \]

Step 4: Solve for \( x \)

Add \( 5x \) to both sides: \[ 12 + 4x = 0 \]

Subtract \( 12 \) from both sides: \[ 4x = -12 \]

Divide both sides by \( 4 \): \[ x = -3 \]

Step 5: Substitute \( x = -3 \) back into one of the equations to find \( y \)

Using \( y = 12 - x \): \[ y = 12 - (-3) = 15 \]

Final Answer

The solution to the system of equations is: \[ \boxed{(-3, 15)} \]

The correct choice is: A. There is one solution. The solution is \(\boxed{(-3, 15)}\).
