Question 1106667: Which expression can be substituted for y in the top equation of the following system to solve the system by substitution? What is the solution?
3x−5y=13x-5y=1
3x−y=−7
My choices are as follows:
1) 7/3x, (−3/26, 173/26)
2)3x+7, (−3,−2)
3) 3/5x+1/5, (−3,−2)
4) −3x−7, (−17/9,4/3)
Thank you again and the "/" symbol is meaning "over" since i can not type it.

The top equation has too many equal signs.
To sub for y, you 1st solve the equation for y.

/ is commonly used for fractions.
eg, 3/4, 7/8, etc.
