An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The solution of the system of equations is (5,8).
An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.
For the given two of the equation, substitute the value of y from the first equation in the second equation.
5x - 17 = x + 3
5x - x = 17 + 3
4x = 20
x = 5
Substitute the value of x in any one of the equation,
y = 5x - 17
y = 5(5) - 17
y = 8
Hence, the solution of the system of equations is (5,8).
