Answer: (x,y) = (-1, 1)
This means that x = -1 and y = 1
========================================================
Explanation:
The first equation says that y is the same as 2x+3
That allows us to substitute y for 2x+3 in the second equation like so:
2x+5y = 3
2x+5( y ) = 3
2x + 5(2x+3) = 3 .... y replaced with 2x+3
2x+10x+15 = 3
12x+15 = 3
12x = 3-15
12x = -12
x = -12/12
x = -1
Then we'll substitute this into the first equation to find y
y = 2x+3
y = 2(-1) + 3 .... x replaced with -1
y = -2+3
y = 1
Together x = -1 and y = 1 pair up to form the ordered pair solution (x,y) = (-1,1)
If you were to graph y = 2x+3 and 2x+5y=3 on the same xy grid, then you should see that the two lines intersect at the location (-1,1). This is a visual way to determine the solution quickly through use of a graphing calculator.

Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 6 coins on each page, then the number of pages for 600 coins is ...
(600 coins)/(6 coins/page) = 100 pages
__
If 39% are empty, then 100% -39% = 61% are filled.
The number of filled pages is ...
61% × 100 = 61/100 × 100 = 61 . . . . pages filled
_____
<em>Comment about percent</em>
You can think of the percent symbol (%) and "per 100" (/100) as being interchangeable. 61% = 61/100
("Cent" is used to signify one of 100 parts. A cent is 1/100 of a dollar, for example. In land area, a cent is 1/100 of an acre. Then, "percent" can be thought of as "per cent" or "per 100 parts".)
