Problem

Find the value of $x$ in each equation. (4) \[ \begin{array}{r} y-5=11 \\ y-5+x=20 \\ -x= \\ x= \end{array} \]

Solution

Step 1 :Solve the first equation for y: \(y = 11 + 5 = 16\)

Step 2 :Substitute y into the second equation: \(16 - 5 + x = 20\)

Step 3 :Solve the equation for x: \(x = 20 - 16 + 5 = 9\)

Step 4 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{y = 16, x = 9}\)
