Answer:  x = 7, y = -3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

3y = 26 - 5x     --> added 5x to both sides to get:  5x + 3y = 26

Elimination method (I am going to eliminate "x":

5x + 3y = 26   →    6(5x + 3y = 26)    →     30x + 18y = 156

6x + 7y = 21    →   -5(6x + 7y = 21)     →   <u> -30x - 35y</u> =<u> -105</u>

                                                                          -17y  =   51

                                                                        <u> ÷-17  </u>    <u>÷-17</u>

                                                                              y =   -3

Now, input y = -3 into one of the original equations to solve for "x":

    3y = 26 - 5x

 3(-3) = 26 - 5x

     -9 = 26 - 5x

-9 -26 = -5x

    -35 = -5x

      7  =  x
