Answer:

math = 87

physics = 168

<em>Brainliest, please!</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Variables:

m = math, p = physics

Equations:

m + p = 255

m = p - 81

Substitution:

m + p = 255

(p - 81) + p = 255

2p - 81 = 255

2p = 336

p = 168

Solving for m:

m + p = 255

m + 168 = 255

m = 255 - 168

m = 87

Checking with the other equation:

m = p - 81

87 = 168 - 81

87 = 87

So, math = 87 and physics = 168

3y=-2x-19 -5x-3y=-2
nevsk [136]
3y=-2x-19 -5x-3y=-2-5x - (-2x - 19) = -2
-5x + 2x + 19 = -2
-3x = -21
x = 7

3y = -2(7) - 19
3y = -14 - 19
3y = 33
y = 11
