    x - y = 1

    5x + 3y = 45

    Solve the first equation for x: x = y + 1

    Substitute x in the second with y + 1

    5x + 3y = 45

    5 (y + 1) + 3y = 45

    5y + 5 + 3y = 45

    8y + 5 = 45

    8y = 40

    y = 5

    Substitute 5 for y in x = y + 1

    x = y + 1

    x = 5 + 1

    x = 6

    Answer: (6, 5)
