You can put this solution on YOUR website!
6x+y=8
3y=11+8X
y=(11+8X)/3
6X=8-y=8-(11+8X)/3=8-11/3+ 8X/3=8x3/3-11/3+8X/3=(24-11+8X)/3=(13+8X)3
6X=13/3+8X/3
6X-8X/3=13/3
(18X-8X)/3=13/3
10X/3=13/3
30X=39
X=39/30=13/10
3Y=11+8x13/10=11+4x13/5=11+52/5=(55+52)5=107/5
Y=107/15
capital x is real X, lower case X is multiply
