    The variable y is eliminated.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To add a system of equations, we add the common terms. x with x, y with y and values with values.

    In this question:

    5x + 6y = 32

    5x - 6y = 8

    Adding:

    5x + 5x + 6y - 6y = 32 + 8

    10x = 40

    So the variable y is eliminated.
