5x-8y=1...(1)
3x+6y=-21...(2)
(1)*3:
15x-24y=3...(3)
(2)*5:
15x+30y=-105...(2)
(3)-(2):
15x-24y-(15x+30y)=3-(-105)
15x-24y-15x-30y=108
-54y=108
y=-2

Answer:
2244 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The first first thing we must do is find the LCM of the following numbers
(51; 68) = 204.
This means that the first time they coincide is at 204.
Now, since his steps always coincide after 204
In Nick's case
Nick's 204 ÷ 51 = 4th step
and in the case of the father
204 ÷ 68 of his father = 3rd step.
Which means that in the 204 cm distance, there will be a total of 6 foot steps, except in the first 204 cm when your "initial" step is counted.
Replacing these values we have that the total distance will be:
67-1 (initial step) / (6 * 204) = 2244 cm
