Question

What are the values of x and y for this system of equations? 2x + y = -1 -x + 3y = 18

Answer 1

X=-3 and y=5
2x+y=-1

-x+3y=18
3y-18=x

2(3y-18)+y=-1
6y-36+y=-1
7y=-1+36
7y=35
y=35/7
y=5

-x+3y=18
-x+3(5)=18
-x+15=18
-x=18-15
-x=3
x=-3

Answer 2

X=1+y/2
That's the answer to the first half of the problem shown the whole problem is invalid together
