Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 3. => y = 3 - x

5x + y = 5x + (3 - x) = 15.

=> 4x + 3 = 15

=> 4x = 12, x = 3.

Therefore y = 3 - (3) = 0.

The solutions are x = 3 and y = 0.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=3

5x+y = 15

I method:

y = 3 - x. substitute this in 2nd equation

5x + (3-x) = 15

5x + 3 - x = 15

4x = 12

x=3

y=0

II method:

subtracting 2nd equation and 1st equation we get

4x +0y = 12

x = 3

y = 0

The y-value is two more than three times the x-value
Nimfa-mama [501]
The strategy for these is to look at what these problems are telling you.

It says the y-value, so you know that this is a y = equation.

y = what? 

y = 2 more than. 4 is two more than 2, right? So saying it's more than is another way of saying "y is 2 + blah blah."

So y = 2 + what? Three times the x-value. What does that mean? 3*X = 3X.

Thus we arrive at the final answer, y = 3x + 2

erica [24]

Answer:

<em>Parallel</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

To be parallel it would have to be the exact same slope, perpendicular would be the opposite...these equations have the same slope so it is <em>parallel</em>.

3x-y=5\\3x-5=y\\y=3x-5\\\\vs\\y=3x+1
