2x+1=5x-44 that would be your equation
next start to simplify
subtract 1 from both sides so you are left with 2x=5x-45
then subtract 5x from both sides and you have -3x=-45
then finally divide -3 from -45 to get x=15
3x + 2y = 10 ....multiply by -4
12x + 5y = 25
-------------------
-12x - 8y = -40 (result of multiplying by -4)
12x + 5y = 25
------------------add
-3y = - 15
y = -15/-3
y = 5
3x + 2y = 10
3x + 2(5) = 10
3x + 10 = 10
3x = 10 - 10
3x = 0
x = 0
solution is (0,5)
