Answer:
(x, y) = (4, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation gives an expression for y that can be substituted into the second equation:
3(2x -5) -x = 5
5x -15 = 5 . . . . . . simplify
5x = 20 . . . . . . . .add 15
x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
y = 2(4) -5 = 3 . . substitute for x in the first equation
(x, y) = (4, 3)
__
Solution by graphing confirms this result.
