check (if possible) Answer by Stitch(470) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given:
---------
Equation 1:
Equation 2:
Solution:
---------
Start by rewritting equation 2. Since Y is by itself, solve for Y
Equation 2: Subtract 5X from both sides
Now you can plug (7-5X) into equation 1 for Y
Equation 1: Simplify Simplify Add 21 to both sides Divide both sides by 19
To find Y, plug 2 in for X into the rewritten equation 2 Simplify Combine like terms
Chesk Solution:
---------
Using X = 2 and Y = -3, solve equation 1
Equation 1:
