150=B1+B2+B3
B3=1.5*(B1+B2)
B1+B2=B3/1.5

X + 2y = 7<br>x - y = 1<br><br>Solve for x and y?​
34kurt

Answer:

y=2

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

make x - y = 1 into x= y + 1

put that wherever x is in the other equation

so y + 1 + 2y =7. then combine like terms into 3y =6. then divide 6 by 3 so you get y = 2

then substitute 2 into the y in the equation x - y = 1 and you get x = 3
