To solve the system of equations using the substitution method, we start with the given system:

\[ 
\begin{cases}
4x - 8y = 11 \\
x + 5y = 1
\end{cases}
\]

Follow these steps:

1. **Solve one equation for one variable:**
   Let's solve the second equation for \( x \):
   \[
   x + 5y = 1
   \]
   Subtract \( 5y \) from both sides:
   \[
   x = 1 - 5y
   \]

2. **Sub
