Answer:

(- 2, - 10 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x - 8 → (1)

y = 5x → (2)

Substitute y = 5x into (1)

5x = x - 8 ( subtract x from both sides )

4x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into either of the 2 equations for y

Substituting into (1)

y = - 2 - 8 = - 10

solution is (- 2, - 10 )
