Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by 
:
Simplify:
His work should have looked like this.
2x + y = 5
x − 2y = 10
y = 5 − 2x
x − 2(5 − 2x) = 10
x − 10 + 4x = 10
5x − 10 = 10 When he added in both sides, he subtracted 10 from 10,
5x = 20 instead of adding 10 from 10 to make 20.
x = 4
2(4) + y = 5
8 + y = 5
y = -3

The equation you want to use is this:
10x = 530 10 pages for x days
x = 530/10 530 pages divided by 10 pages
So the answer is,
53 days
