Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - y = 33
x/y = 5/2 Multiply both sides by y
y*x/y =5y/2
x = 5y/2 Multiply both sides by 2
2x = 5y Multiply the top equation by 2. Bring 5y to the left
2x - 2y = 66
====================
2x - 5y = 0
2x - 2y = 66 Subtract
-3y = - 66 Divide by - 3
y = 22
x - y = 33
x - 22 = 33 Add 22 to both sides
x = 22 + 33
x = 55
