Please help

[stone cedar]

I've tried to work it out several times, asked my dad and watched tons of videos and still don't understand. Please can someone explain what I have to do. (If I write 11x=p I would need to simplify it)

[quiet kraken]

Solve both equations for y

and then set them equal

[stone cedar]

i got 1.25

for y

[quiet kraken]

how?*

[stone cedar]

Yea i got -2x+3.75=p

[quiet kraken]

no

you need to solve for x and y

because it says the solution is in terms of p

so you should have x = ...p and y = ...p some

[stone cedar]

2x=5p/4

but i cant divide it

[quiet kraken]

wdym

you can divide by 2

[stone cedar]

like how would you divide 5p/4 by 2

nvm

sorry

[quiet kraken]

5p/4 / 2 = 5p/4 * 1/2

5p/8

are you familiar with fraction rules?

[stone cedar]

not really

i can do basic simultaneous equations

[quiet kraken]

then you'll have a hard time doing such tasks

solving equations requires that

but it's simple

[stone cedar]

wait

nvm

[stone cedar]

yea

sorry my brains not working at all

[quiet kraken]

mines too

[crimson wave]

so you found the solution?

[stone cedar]

Honestly i am clueless

i got 5p/8=x 1/4=y for my answer this tie

time

[quiet kraken]

solve for me the first equation for y

[stone cedar]

y=5p/4

[quiet kraken]

5x+3y=4p

3y = 4p - 5x

y = (4p-5x)/3

now set them equal

(4p-5x)/3 = 2x+p and solve for x

if it aint then take a break
