Question 352230
x=10-y
y=x-8

Plug in the first equation into the second one and you get
y=10-y-8  combine like terms and you get
y=2-y  now add y to each side and you get
2y=2  divide both sides by 2 and you get
y=1 now you plug that into the first original equaiton
x=10-1 then you simplify and you get
x=9
So the solution is (9,1)
