x+4=40
Consider the first equation. Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x=40-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
x=36
Subtract 4 from 40 to get 36.
75\times 36=5y
Consider the second equation. Insert the known values of variables into the equation.
2700=5y
Multiply 75 and 36 to get 2700.
5y=2700
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
y=\frac{2700}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=540
Divide 2700 by 5 to get 540.
x=36 y=540
The system is now solved.
