First you plug in for x,

2(y-3)+y=12

Then you solve for y
2y-5+y=12
-10y+y=12
-9y=12
-9y/9=12/-9
y=-1.333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Please solve completely I really need this answered
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Ted is correct. Maggie made mistakes while trying to isolate x for both equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

For 3x-2=0, in order to move -2 to the left side, Maggie had to add 2 on both sides because -2+2=0. The same problem is seen for x+5=0. Maggie had to subtract 5 on both sides because +5-5=0
