x+2y=5
x=5-2y
Put this value in 2x+3y=8
→2(5-2y)+3y=8
→10-4y+3y=8
→ -y=8-10
→ -y=-2
Therefore, y=2
Now, put the value of y in x+2y=5
→x+2(2)=5
→x=5-4
→x=1
therefore, x=1

HEYA MATE!!
Given Equations are:-
2x + 3y = 8 -------- (i)
x + 2y = 5 ------- (ii)
On solving (i) & (ii) * 2, we get
2x + 3y = 8
2x + 4y = 10
Thus,
-y = -2
y = 2
Substitute y = 2 in (i), we get
⇒ 2x + 3y = 8
⇒ 2x + 3(2) = 8
⇒ 2x + 6 = 8
⇒ 2x = 2
⇒ x = 1
Therefore, the values are x = 1
and y = 2.
