\

The equations are

\

$\"\"$ (equation 1)

\

$\"\"$ (equation 2) $\"\"$

\

Since $\"\"$ , substitute $\"\"$ for y in the second equation.

\

$\"\"$ (equation 2)

\

$\"\"$ (replace $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Distributive property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Add: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract 48 from each side)

\

$\"\"$ (Commutative property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Divide each side by 8)

\

$\"\"$ (Cancel common terms)

\

$\"\"$ (Divide: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply each side by negative one)

\

$\"\"$ (Product of two same signs is positive)

\

$\"\"$

\

Now Substitute 5 for y in either equation to find the value of x.

\

$\"\"$ (equation 1)

\

$\"\"$ (replace y by 5)

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ )

\

The solution is $\"\"$ $\"\"$
