Well there are two ways to solve this.
<span>First is by substitutingwe would need to free one of the variable to solve it. It can be one or the other it would result in both ways.

5x - 6y = -11<span>3x + 6y = 3

</span></span><span>3x + 6y = 3
x=(-6y+3)/3
x= -2y+1

Now we use this and put it in the other of the equations
5(-2y+1) - 6y = -11-10y+5-6y=-11
-16y=-11-5
-16y=-16
y=-16/-16
y=1
Now we use this to find x.
x=-2y+1
x=-2(1)+1
x= -2+1
x=-1
Now that we now our variables we have to check if the are correct.
5x - 6y = -11<span>5(-1)-6(1)= -11
-5-6=-11
-11=-11
3x + 6y = 3
3(-1)+6(1)= 3
-3+6=3
3=3

So yeah x=-1 and y= 1
That's a way to solve it there is another way that is by eliminating.
so i this we have to delete a variable in both equations. In thi scase we can take y becuase if we sum the bothe quation 6y and-6y get eliminated.
</span></span>5x - 6y = -11<span>3x + 6y = 3 
8x= -8
x= -8/8
x=-1
Now we use this to find the other variable
5(-1) - 6y = -11-5-6y=-11
-6y= -11+5
-6y=-6
y=-6/-6
y= 1
So now we </span>have to check if <span>the</span> are correct.
5x - 6y = -11<span>5(-1)-6(1)= -11
-5-6=-11
-11=-11

3x + 6y = 3
3(-1)+6(1)= 3
-3+6=3
3=3

That's that
X= -1
Y= 1

Hope it helped</span>

5x - 6y = -11
3x + 6y = 3

Rearrange the 2nd equation:

3x + 6y = 3

Subtract 6y to both sides:

3x = -6y + 3

Divide 3 to both sides:

x = -2y + 1

Plug in 2y + 1 for 'x' in the 1st equation:

5x - 6y = -11

5(-2y + 1) - 6y = -11

Distribute 5:

-10y + 5 - 6y = -11

Combine like terms:

-16y + 5 = -11

Subtract 5 to both sides:

-16y = -16

Divide -16 to both sides:

y = 1

Plug this into any of the two equations to find 'x':

3x + 6y = 3

3x + 6(1) = 3

3x + 6 = 3

Subtract 6 to both sides:

3x = -3

Divide 3 to both sides:

x = -1

So our solution is:

(-1, 1)

Solve. 25x + 2 = 53x - 3
Lemur [1.5K]
The answer is that x is equal to 0.17 or -5/-28. You have to add like terms so 25x+2=53x-3 will turn to -28x=-5.
