You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve one of the equations for a variable. You pick which. SUBSTITUTE the expression into the other equation and solve for the single variable in this. Use the value in either original equation to find the value for the first variable.

I would like it if you showed me step by step how you find the answer.
The question is
a + 2b = 7
2a = 3b
a + 2b = 7 ---- eq (i)
2a = 3b ------- eq (ii)
a = 7 - 2b
Substitute 7 - 2b for a in eq (ii) to find value of b
Substitute value of b into either equation to find value of a
