Answer:
x= 2 and y= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve 3x-y=9 for y
subtract 3x from both sides to get -y=9-3x
then divide by -1 from both sides to get y= -9 + 3x or y=3x - 9
Next substitute 3x - 9 for y in 4x + y =5, like this:
4x + 3x - 9 = 5
7x - 9 = 5
add 9 to both sides to get
7x = 14
divide both sides by 7 to get
x=2
Next substitute 2 for x in y= 3x - 9
y = 3(2)-9
y = -3
