Step1
Equations are given by
x-4y=-8
5y-1=x
Step2
on substituting the expression of x in tems of y from equalion 1, into equation 1, we get,
(5y-1)-4y=-8
(5y-4y)-1=-8
y-1=-8
y=-7
on substituting the value of y in equation 2, we get, 
5x(-7)-1=x
-35-1=x
 x=-36
Hence, the solution of the given lirea equalions is
(-36,-7)
