Question

I don't know how to do this​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -11/5 and y = 24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use elimination.

First, we need to multiply so that at least one variable can cancel out.

We can multiply the top equation by 2.

So we get

4x + 6y = 20

Then, we can use elimination.

The x's cancel out.

So we get 5y = 24

Or y = 24/5

Then, we can plug in this y value back into the first equation to find x.

2x + 3(24/5) = 10

2x + 72/5 = 50/5

2x = -22/5

x = -11/5

So x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
