Answer:

  (x, y) = (2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the expression for y in the second equation into the first equation:

  5x -5 = x +3

  4x = 8 . . . . . . add 5-x to both sides

  x = 2 . . . . . . divide by 4

  y = 2+3 = 5 . . . substitute for x in the first equation

The solution is (x, y) = (2, 5).
