    So use cancelation

    multiply first equation by 2

    2x+8y=10

    times 2

    4x+16y=20

    now add

    4x+16y=20

    -4x-9y=-13 +

    0x+7y=7

    7y=7

    divide by 7

    y=1

    subsittue

    2x+8y=10

    2x+8 (1) = 10

    2x+8=10

    subtract 8 from both sides

    2x=2

    divide by 2

    x=1

    x=1

    y=1
