Answer:

x=24 , y=68

Explanation:

Given:


\mathrm{\begin{bmatrix}x+y=92\\ y=3x-4\end{bmatrix}}

Solution:

Substitute:
\mathrm{y = 3x-4}


\begin{bmatrix}x+3x-4=92\end{bmatrix}

Isolate x for 4x - 4= 92 : x = 24

Substitute : x = 24


y=3\cdot \:24-4


y=64

Hence, the solutions are :
x=24,\:y=68
