Hello Mate!

x - y = 3
x - y - 3 = 0 --------(1)

3x + 2y = 19
3x + 2y - 19 = 0 -------(2)

Multiply -3 from 1st equation

-3x + 3y + 9 = 0 --------(3)

Add equation (2) and (3)

5y - 10 = 0
5y = 10
y = 10/5 = 2

Keeping y value in (1) equation

x - 2 - 3 = 0
x = 3 + 2
x = 5

Hope it helps☺!

Answer 2

y=2

x=5

hope this helps you dear......
