which expression can you substitute for x in 5x+y=8 to solve the system below?
5x+y=8
x+4y=2

Answer:
x =30/19 and y =2/19
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + y = 8
x + 4y = 2
then
5x + y = 8
-5(x +4y =2)
5x + y = 8
-5x - 20y = - 10
0 +y - 20y = -2
- 19y = -2
y = 2/19 then
5x + 2/19 = 8
5x = 152-2/19
5x/5 =150/19 *1/5
x =30/19
