You can put this solution on YOUR website! Can you please explain substitution to me step by step?
------------------------
Equations:
x + y = 3
2x + 3y = 5
-----------------
Solve the 1st for "x":
x = 3-y
------
Substitute for "x" in the 2nd equation:
2(3-y) + 3y = 5
6 -2y + 3y = 5
y = -1
--------
Since x = 3-y
x = 3--1 = 4
---------------
Solution: (4,-1)
