Add both the equations together to eliminate x
x+5y=8
-x+2y=-1
7y=7
y=1
Now fill in y into the original equation
x+5(1)=8
x+5=8
x=3
Now you can check by filling x and y into the second equation.
-(3)+2(1)=-1
-3+2=-1
-1=-1
So your answer will be (3, 1)
Brainliest my answer if it helps you out?
1/2 is the largest fraction out of all of them
Y = -2x + 8 = x - 4
x + 2x = 8 + 4
3x = 12
x = 4
y = -2(4) + 8 = -8 + 8 = 0
Solution is (4, 0)
