\left \{ {{a+b=87} \atop {a-3b=7}} \right.



a-3b=7
a=7+3b

a+b=87
(7+3b)+b=87
7+4b=87
4b=87-7
4b=80
b=20

a=7+3b
a=7+3*20
a=7+60
a=67

If y=5x-3 and 3x-y=-1, what is the value of y
Svet_ta [14]
Well if you make them both equal to y I got...
Y=-3x+1
Y=5x-3
But I don't think you can find it without the y since they are different variables. Like I know -3x and 5x are the slopes and 1 and -3 are the y intercepts but I'm stuck after that. Sorry if that wasn't any help.
Hope I helped.
