dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: The answer is (22, 15).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that 'x' represents the number of cars Leonard has and 'y' represents the number of cars Liam has.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x-y=7,\\\\3x+2y=96.

Multiplying the first equation by 2 and adding to the second equation, we have

2x+3x=14+96\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=110\\\\\Rightarrow x=22.

So,

y=x-7=22-7=15.

Therefore, Leonard has 22 cars and Liam has 15 cars.

Thus, (22, 15) is the solution to the given system.
