Question

5x+3y=26 2x+3y=14 can someone help please

Answer 1

Answer:

System of Linear Equations entered :

[1] 5x-3y=26

[2] y=2x+14

Equations Simplified or Rearranged :

[1] 5x - 3y = 26

[2] -2x + y = 14

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

-3y + 5x = 26 y - 2x = 14

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable y

[2] y = 2x + 14

// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]

[1] 5x - 3•(2x+14) = 26

[1] -x = 68

// Solve equation [1] for the variable x

[1] x = - 68

// By now we know this much :

x = -68

y = 2x+14

// Use the x value to solve for y

y = 2(-68)+14 = -122
