Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
6x - 5y = 15
x = y + 3
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 6(y + 3) - 5y = 15
- Distribute 6: 6y + 18 - 5y = 15
- Combine like terms: y + 18 = 15
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 18 on both sides: y = -3
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: x = y + 3
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x = -3 + 3
- Add: x = 0
