Hello!
8y - 1 = x
3x = 2y
Put what x equals in the first equation in place of x in the second equatoin
3(8y - 1) = 2y
Distribute the 3
24y - 3 = 2y
Subtract 24y from both sides
-3 = -22y
Divide both sides by -22
y = 3/22
Now we put y into the first equation
8(3/22) - 1 = x
Multiply
12/11 - 1 = x
Subtract
1/11 = x
The answer is (1/11, 3/22)
Hope this helps!
