Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equations is expressed as
3x + y = 9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
3x = 9 - y - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
To apply the method of elimination, we would rearrange equation 2 so that it would take the form of equation 1. Therefore, we would add y to the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes
3x + y = 9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -3
Subtracting equation 3 from equation 1, it becomes
0 = 0
The equations have infinitely many solutions because if we input any values of x and y that satisfies the first equation, those values will also satisfy the second equation.
1 is in the tens place
we look at 2
2 <5 so we leave it alone

Choice B
Answer:
x=3
y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 5y = 16
3x + 2y = 5
Solve for x in the first equation.
2x - 5y = 16
2x = 16 + 5y
x = (16 + 5y)/2
x = 8 + 5/2y
Put x as 8 + 5/2y in the second equation and solve for y.
3(8+5/2y) + 2y = 5
24+15/2y + 2y = 5
24 + 19/2y = 5
19/2y = 5-24
19/2y = -19
y = -2
Put y as -2 in the first equation and solve for x.
2x - 5(-2) = 16
2x +10 = 16
2x = 16-10
2x = 6
x = 3
