Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-coordinate, substitute y = 8 into the equation abd solve for x

5x - 7 = 8 ( add 7 to both sides )

5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 3

Thus (3, 7) is a solution to the equation


Answer:  x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - y = 8

It is given that y = 7, so substitute "y" with "7" into the equation:

5x - (7) = 8        substituted y with 7

5x        = 15       added 7 to both sides

 x         = 3        divided both sides by 5


When y = 7, then x = 3   ⇒   the coordinate is (3, 7)
