You're looking for c, so you want to isolate it or get it by itself. To get rid of the /3 you multiply since the opposite of division is multiplication and to get rid of it, you do the opposite (like -9 you would add 9 to get it to 0). Now you are left with -19+c = 24 (the 24 is 8*3 because what you do to one side you do to the other. Now you get c by itself so you add 19 to both sides which leaves you with C= 43. Sorry if this was confusing!
8x - y = 54
8x + 2y = 60
subtracting, we get -3y = -6
y = 2
x = 7
Answer is (c) (7,2)
