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
y = 3(1) - 5
y = 3 - 5
y = -2
(1,-2)
Check:
-2 = 3(1) - 5 ---> - 2 = -2
-2 = 6(1) - 8 ---> -2 = -2
Hope this helped!

Answer:
Inspection fee = $50
h = 2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = the inspection fee
Charge per hour = $22
Number of hours = 4
A customer with a coupon for 40% off the inspection fee
This means the customer paid 60% of the inspection fee
118 = 60% of x + 22(4)
118 = 0.6x + 88
118 - 88 = .6x
30 = .6x
x = 30/0.6
x = $50
Inspection fee = x = $50
How many hours are worked when a customer pays $94 without a coupon?
94 = 50 + 22h
94 - 50 = 22h
44 = 22h
h = 44/22
h = 2 hours
