To solve for x, we need to get it on one side by itself, and then to make sure we are left with ONLY x, no coefficients or anything.
-2x -3 > 97.
Add 3 to both sides.
-2x > 100.
Divide both sides by -2 (remember to flip the inequality when dealing with negatives).
x < -50

Answer:
1: y=5, x=2
2:y=1, x=6
3:x=5 and y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
For #1: Use substitution, substitute x=2 into the second equation
For #2: Set the two equations equal to each other and solve for y. Then plug in the value of y and solve for x.
For #3: Use substitution, substitute x=2y+3 into the second equation. Solve for y and plug in the value of y to solve for x.
