Question 103104: Solve each of the following systems by addition. If a unique solution does not exist, state
whether the system is inconsistent or dependent.
2x = 3y = 1
5x + 3y = 16

The given system of equations are:
2x - 3y = 1
5x + 3y = 16
To solve by adding, the equations can be written as:
7x = 17
By back substitution, we get:
2(17/7) - 3y = 1
34/7 - 3y = 1
34/7 - 1 = 3y
27/7 = 3y
9/7 = y
thus the values...
Hence the solution is unique
