3x-5y=1

3x-5(2x-3)=1

3x-10x+15=1

-7x+15=1

-7x=-14

x=2

y=2x-3=2(2)-3=4-3=1

Answers: x=2, y=1

Answer by sejackson91(8)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = 2x-3
and
3x-5y = 1
so
3x-5(2x-3) = 1
3x-10x-15 = 1
-7x = 16
x = -16/7
so
y = 2(-16/7)-3
y = -32/7 - 21/7
y = -53/7
