can you please help me solve and check using the substitution method.
\n" ); document.write( " \"system%283x%2By=5%2C+-2x%2B3y=4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Solve the first for \"y\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"3x%2By=5\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=5-3x\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Substitute \"%285-3x%29\" for \"y\" in the second equation\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"-2x%2B3%2Ay=4\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"-2x%2B3%285-3x%29=4\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"-2x%2B15-9x=4\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"-11x=-11\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"x=1\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now substitute \"%281%29\" for\"x\" in \"y=5-3x\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=5-3x\"\r\n" );

document.write( "\"y=5-3\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=2\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So the solution is (x,y) = (1,2)\r\n" );
