Answer:

  (4, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations can be described a number of ways. One possible description is "a consistent pair of linear equations in two variables."

Perhaps you want to know the solution to this system of equations. I find it easiest to graph them. The attached graph shows the solution to be ...

  (x, y) = (4, -3)

__

You can also use "elimination" to simplify the system to a single equation in a single variable. Adding 4 times the second equation to 3 times the first will do that.

  3(5x +4y) +4(2x -3y) = 3(8) +4(17)

  23x = 92 . . . . . simplify

  x = 4 . . . . . . . .  divide by 23

Substituting this value into the first equation, we have ...

  5(4) +4y = 8

  5 +y = 2 . . . . . . divide by 4

  y = -3 . . . . . . . . subtract 5

The solution is (x, y) = (4, -3).
