To answer this question, you should set up and equation before doing anything else. So for this question you 're going to set up two equations.
The first equation is 2x+5y=33
The second equation is 8x+3y=30
Once you do that you have to solve for either X or Y by canceling out the other one. In this problem figuring out the Y is easier because you can cancel the X's more easily than the Y. To cancel a variable, they have to add up to 0.
So to cancel the X you multiply the equation 2x+5y=33 by -4.
That gives you -8x-20y= -132
Then you set up the two equations and add them together.
(-8x-20y= -132) + (8x+3y=30)
That gives you -17y = -102
So then you solve for Y by dividing by -17. You find out that Y is equal to 6. Then you plug the 6 back into the ORIGINAL equations and solve for X, which turns out to be 1.5

Answer:
(-4,16)
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2x+18=5/2+26
1/2x=5/2x+8
-2=8 divided by -2
Equals x=-4
Plug in -4 in one of the equations
1/2(-4)=18= 16
