Question

Please help me with this question I am having difficulty with it

Answer 1

Answer:

The first x=4       y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-5 = y-5

x+1 = y-3

  Multiply the second by -2(to eliminate x)

  2x-5 =y-5

 -2x-2= -2y+6

      ADD BOTH

-7 = -y+1

y=8

            PLUG y

x+1 =y-3

x+1 =8-3

x+1=5

x=4
