You can put this solution on YOUR website! X-4Y=1
4X+Y=21
------------
Multiply thru the 1st equation by 4 to get:
4x-16y = 4
--------------
Subtract that from the 2nd equation to get:
17y = 17
y = 1
-----------
Substitute that into x-4y=1 to solve for x:
x-4*1 = 1
x = 5
------------
Final Answer: x=5,y=1
