We can factorise this expression by grouping. First let us arrange it in this way
Let us bracket them like this:
In the first bracket portion, take x as common and in the second expression, take 2 as common.

Answer:
y = 1
d = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
8y - 2d = 0 ---------------(I)
5y + 4d = 26 1/4
5y + 4d = 105/4 ------------------(II)
(I)*2 16y - 4d = 0
(II) <u>5y + 4d = 105/4</u> {add (I) &(II)}
21y = 105/4
Substitute y =1 in equation (I)
8*1 - 2d = 0
8 - 2d = 0
-2d = -8
d = -8/-2
d = 4
