Answer:

-42/11

Step-by-step explanation:

x = y - 8

5x = 6 - 6y

So now solve the system of equations, divide everything in the second equation by 5 to get it to x = 6/5 - 6y/5

Now...

x = y - 8

x = 6/5 - 6y/5

Now substitute first equation into the second and x is gonna be -42/11 or the first number
