Step 1: Set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x.
3x -5 = 6x - 8
3x + (-5+5) = 6x -8 + 5
(3x - 6x) = (6x - 6x) - 3
-3x/-3 = -3/-3
x = 1
Step 2: To solve for y take one of the given equation of your choice (for the purpose of this explanation I will only do y = 3x - 5) and replace x with 1, then solve for y
I am not positive for the factoring of each expression but for the distributive property you do 8 TIMES x then 8 times 7 so you would get blank plus blank and so on for the next ones.
