Y=6x (1)
y=5x-7 (2)

Substitute y into (2)
(6x)=5x-7 -- subtract 5x from both sides
x=-7

Sub x into 1
y=6(-7)
y=-42

x=-7
y=-42

First substitute 'y' in 2nd equation by right side of 1st one and you get:
$Y=6x$
$6x=5x+7$
now substract 5x from both sides of 2nd equal and you get:
$6x-5x=5x+7-5x$
as a result of the equal above you get:
$x=7$
now substitute x in very first equation by the result from above (x=7):
$Y=6*7=42$
$x=7$

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 25 charged purchases and a standard distribution of 2

This means that $\mu = 25, \sigma = 2$
