Question 321141: I need help to solve by substitution or addition, whichever one is easier. Please show me in detail how to work this problem.
2y - x = 3
x = 3y - 5
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2y - x = 3
x = 3y - 5
..
2y-x=3
x-3y=-5
..
Add both the equations
2y-x+x-3y=3-5
-y=-2
y=-2/-1
y=2
plug the value of y in any of the equations
2y-x=3
2*2-x=3
4-x=3
-x=-4+3
-x=-1
x=1
