Answer:

(6, -1)

Explanation:

Replace the x in the first equation with 5 - y since x is equal to it:

5 - y - 2y = 8 subtract like terms

5 - 3y = 8 subtract 5 from both sides

-3y = 3 divide both sides by -1 to simplify and make the y positive

y = -1

now since we know the value of y we can use it to find x

x = 5 - y

x = 5 - (-1) (two - = +)

x = 6
