x=1/5y
3x+2y=26 substitute
3(1/5y)+2y=26
3/5y+2y=26
2 3/5y=26
13/5y=26
13/5y X (5/13)=26 X (5/13)
y=10
hope this helps!

Substitution Method
x = 1/5y- - - - - - - - -Equation 1
3x + 3y = 26- - - - - Equation 2
- - - - - - - - - -
Substitute equation 1 into equation 2
3x + 3y = 26
3(1/5y) + 2y = 26
3/5y + 2y = 26
3/5y + 10/5y = 26
13/5y = 26
5(13/5y) = 5(26)
13y = 130
13y / 13 = 130 / 13
y = 130 / 13
y = 10
Insert the y value into equation 1
- - - - - - - - - - -
x = 1/5y
x = 1/5(10)
x = 10/5
x = 2
Insert the x value into equation 1
- - - - - - - - - -
Check equation 1
x = 1/5y
2 = 1/5(10)
2 = 10/5
2 = 2
- - - - - - - -
Check equation 2
3x + 2y = 26
3(2) + 2(10) = 26
46 + 20 = 26
26 = 26

Both equations balance

First we need to substitute x into the second equation.
Therefore,
3(1/5y) + 2y = 26
3/5y + 2y = 26
13/5y = 26
13=130y
y=130/13
y = 10
When y=1, x = 1/5 X 10
x = 2

x=1/5y
3x+2y=26
Put 1/5y from the 1st equation for x in the 2nd equation:
3(1/5y) + 2y = 26
2 3/5 y = 26
13/5 y = 26
y = 5/13*26= 10
x = 1/5 (10)= 2
x=2 and y = 10

First: substitute/replace (1/5)y with "x" in the 2nd equation.
2) 3x + 2y = 26
3[(1/5)y] + 2y = 26
(3/5)y + 2y = 26
(13/5)y = 26
*Divide both sides by 13/5 (when you move a term to the opposite side, always use the opposite sign).
(13/5)y/(13/5) = 26/(13/5)
y = (26/1)/(13/5)
Sec: rule - you can't divide fractions. multiply the 1st fraction with the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
y = (26/1)*(5/13)
y = 130/13
y = 10
Third: substitute 10 with "y" in the 1st equation.
1) x = (1/5)y
x = (1/5)(10)
x = 10/5
x = 2
Solution set: (2, 10)

Plug x in:
3(1/5y)+2y=26
Distribute:
(3/5)y+2y=26
Add Together:
(13/5)y=26
Divide both sides by (13/5):
y=10
Now plug y into original:
X=2

Yes. Or you can write like x-(1/5)y=0, and solve the wo equations.
3x + 2y = 26
Substitute => (3/5)y +2y = 26
3y + 10y = 130
13y = 130
y = 10
So x = (1/5)*10
x = 2

just put (1/5y) in where "x" is in the bottom equation.
You get 3(1/5y) + 2y = 26.
Which is 3y/5 + 2y = 26...
3y/5 + 10y/5 = 26...
13y/5 = 26
y = 10
Therefore x = 2
