20pts<br> how do you solve 3x-2y=14?
Furkat [3]
X(3) - Y(2) = 14. So you need numbers that will multiply by 3 and a number that multiply by 2 that will equal 14.
The x can be 10 (equals 30) and then y can be 8 (equals 16).
30 subtracted by 16 equals 14.

ANSWER:


X = 10 Y = 16
3(10) - 2(8) = 14

Hope this helped. Have a great day. A thank you and (or) brainliest is always appreciated. Goodbye!
