Answer:

x=2, y=21

Explanation:

there are two methods: substiution and elimation. I will be doing subtistution in this soultion:

first isolate y in either equation, it would be easier to do it in the second one.

y= 11+5x

Then, subtitute that into the first equation

2(11+5x)+8x=58 (it says 2y+8x+58 but I assume you mean 2y+8x=58?)

22+10x+8x=58

18x = 36

x=2

substitute that back into y = 11+5x, to get y=11+10 = 21
