Answer:

x=6 y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations and then plug into the other.

5x - 2y = 26
5(y + 4) - 2y = 26
5y + 20 - 2y = 26
Combine like terms
20 + 3y = 26
-20 on both sides
3y = 6
/3 on both sides
y = 2

(Substitute y = 2 in one of the equations)
y + 4 = x
6 = x

Answer:
y = 2
x = 6
