3 0
Multiply the 2nd equation by -1 then add equations together
-1<span>(2x+y=11<span>)
</span></span>-2x - y = -11
(Adding will eliminate the Y)
3x = 12
------------------------------------
Divide each side by 3
3x ÷ 2 = 12 ÷ 3
x = 4
==================================================================
To find Y substitute 4 for x in 5x+y=<span>23
</span><span><span>(5)(4)</span>+y</span>=<span>23
</span>y+20=<span>23
</span>-----------------------------
Add -20 on each side
<span>y+20+-20</span>=<span>23+-20
</span>y = 3

Your answers are x = 4 and y = 3

Solve the system 8y-5z=23 3y-2z=6<br><br> 100 POINTS
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

z = 21 ; y= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all we have to isolate a variable.

In second expression we can obtain:

3y = 2z+6

y = 2/3 z + 2

now we have to substitute this value in the first equation and solve it

8(2/3z+2)-5z = 23

16/3z + 16 -5z = 23

16z +48 - 15z = 69

z = 21

now we have to substitute z in the second equation:

y = 2/3 (21) +2

y = 14+ 2 = 16

y = 16
