Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5y = 1

7x + 4y = −13

We will use the elimination method to eliminate the x variable. Then we will solve for y. We need the coefficients of the x-terms in the two equations to be additive inverses, so they will add to zero, eliminating x.

Multiply both sides of the first equation by -7, and multiply both sides of the second equation by 3.

-21x - 35y = -7

21x + 12y = -39

Now add the equations to eliminate x.

-23y = -46

Divide both sides by -23.

y = 2

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x=1\ \vee\ x=2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3^{2x}-4\cdot3^{x+1}+27=0\\\\\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\ \text{and}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\\left(3^x\right)^2-4\cdot3^x\cdot3^1+27=0\\\\\left(3^x\right)^2-12\cdot3^x+27=0\\\\\text{substitute}\ 3^x=t>0\\\\t^2-12t+27=0\\\\t^2-3t-9t+27=0\\\\t(t-3)-9(t-3)=0\\\\(t-3)(t-9)+0\iff t-3=0\ \vee\ t-9=0\\\\t-3=0\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\boxed{t=3}\\\\t-9=0\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\boxed{t=9}$
