    1) x=14 and y=-3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve the system of equations, substitute x = - 3y+5 into the equation 2x + 8y = 4 for x. This becomes 2 (-3y+5) + 8y = 4. To solve, apply the distributive property, combine like terms and isolate y.

    2 (-3y+5) + 8y=4

    -6y+10+8y=4

    10+2y=4

    10-10+2y=4-10

    2y=-6

    y=-3

    Then to find x, substitute y = -3 into x = -3y+5.

    x = - 3 (-3) + 5

    x = 9 + 5

    x = 14
