Question 1102036
Solve the following system by the substitution method. Check the solution(s).
1/5x+2/3y=-43/5
3x−y=3 
-----
y = 3x-3
-------
Substitute for "y" and solve for "x"::
(1/5)x + (2/3)y = -43/5
(1/5)x + (2/3)(3x-3) = -43/5
(1/5)x + 2x-2 = -43/5
(11/5)x = -33/5
x = -3
---------
y = 3x-3 = -12
