Answer:
x = 2 and y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 2y = 8
5x - y = 9 multiply by 2 to make coefficient of y equal
3x + 2y = 8
10x - 2y = 18
add both equations => 13x = 26 => x = 2
now substitute value of x in any one of the two equations and get tbe value of y
3*2 + 2y = 8
6 + 2y = 8
2y = 2
y = 1
