Given Equation:-

5x+y=17 . . . . . . . . 1
x+y=3 . . . . . . . . . . 2

To find :

value of x
value of y

Solution :

Let's start with equation 2:-

x + y = 3

y = 3 - x

Put the value of y in Equation 1

5x+y=17
5x + (3 - x) = 17
5x - x + 3 = 17
4x + 3 = 17
4x = 17 - 3
4x = 14
x = 14/4
x = 7/2
x = 3.5

Now Let's find value of y:

put the value of x in equation 2:

y = 3 - x

y = 3 - 3.5

y = 0.5
