Set up a new equation of 5x=4x+24 and solve it should be x=24

So first you know that y=5x, then put this in the first equation instead of y, so it will be 5x=4x+24, and you just move the 4x to the other side of the equation, and you get 5x-4x=24, and finally, x=24.
I hope this will be useful to you ;)

$\begin{array}{ccll} \$&km\\ \cline{1-2} 32&14\frac{2}{9}\\[1em] x&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{32}{x}=\cfrac{14\frac{2}{9}}{1}\implies \cfrac{32}{x}=14\frac{2}{9}\implies \cfrac{32}{x}=\cfrac{14\cdot 9+2}{9} \\\\\\ \cfrac{32}{x}=\cfrac{128}{9}\implies 288=128x\implies \cfrac{288}{128}=x\implies \stackrel{~\hfill \textit{2 bucks and 25 cents}}{\cfrac{9}{4}=x\implies 2\frac{1}{4}}=x$
