5x + y = 15
y = -5x + 15
Substituting y= -5x+15 from first equation into second equation:
3x + 2y = 16
3x + 2·(-5x + 15) = 16
3x - 10x + 30 = 16
-7x + 30 = 16
7x = 30 - 16 = 14
x = 2
Substituting x=2 into the first equation:
5x + y = 15
5(2) + y = 15
10 + y = 15
y = 15 - 10
y = 5
So your final answers are x=2 and y=5.

Answer:
4.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -4 y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 = -x - 9
3x + 3 = -9
3x = -12
x = -4
y = - (-4) - 9
y = 4 - 9
y = -5
Problem: 2/3= 18/(x+5)
First, I would multiply the (x+5) over
Making it 2/3(x+5)=18
Second, I would Divide by 2/3 (which is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal 3/2)
which shows up like this now (x+5)=18*3/2
third I would subtract the 5 over
which will give you your answer
