3(8x-y = 31)

5x+3y = 23

Multiply all terms in the top equation by 3:

24x-3y = 83

5x+3y = 23

Add both equations together in order to eliminate y:

29x = 116

Divide both sides by 29 to find the value of x:

x = 4

Substitute the value of x into the original equations to find the value of y:

Therefore: x = 4 and y = 1
