Answer: Your answer is c

Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you can do is add the two equations together to cancel out x

5x-2y=3

-5x+4y=9

added them together will get us 2y=12, from here divide 2 and get y=6

Plug 6 into the first equation and solve for x.

5x-2(6)=3

5x-12=3, add 13 to the other side

5x=15, divide 5 and get the answer

x=3

Help....!! I need to solve this simultaneous equation y=x-2 and y=3x+5 With working out if possible please....

Blababa [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Y= x - 2. Y = 3x + 5

Putting value of y

x - 2 = 3x + 5

-2 - 5 = 3x - x

-7 = 2x

-7/2 = x

Putting value of x

Y = 3(-7/2) + 5

Y = - 10.5 + 5

Y = - 5.5
