The answer to the question is 5
The solution for the system of linear equations 2x- y = 3 and y - x = 1 are x = 4 and y = 5
<h3>What are linear equations?</h3>
Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change, slope or gradient
<h3>How to determine the solution to the system?</h3>
A system of linear equations is a collection of at least two linear equations.
In this case, the system of equations is given as
2x- y = 3
y - x = 1
Make y the subject in the second equation, by adding x to both sides of the equation
y - x + x = x + 1
This gives
y = x + 1
Substitute y = x + 1 in 2x- y = 3
2x- x - 1 = 3
Evaluate the like terms
x = 4
Substitute x = 4 in y = x + 1
y = 4 + 1
Evaluate
y = 5
Hence, the solution for the system of linear equations 2x- y = 3 and y - x = 1 are x = 4 and y = 5

Answer:
P is complementary to x
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary means adding to 90 degrees
P+x = 90 degrees
So P is complementary to x

To solve, we will follow the steps below:
3x+y=11 --------------------------(1)
5x-y=21 ------------------------------(2)
since y have the same coefficient, we can eliminate it directly by adding equation (1) and (2)
adding equation (1) and (2) will result;
8x =32
divide both-side of the equation by 8
x = 4
We move on to eliminate x and then solve for y
To eliminate x, we have to make sure the coefficient of the two equations are the same.
We can achieve this by multiplying through equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3
The result will be;
15x + 5y = 55 ----------------------------(3)
15x - 3y =63 --------------------------------(4)
subtract equation (4) from equation(3)
8y = -8
divide both-side of the equation by 8
y = -1
