Question

x+y=1 and 2x-3y=-5 SOLVE FOR x and y

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = x - 1 \\ \\ 2x - 3(x - 1) = - 5 \\ \\ 2x - 3x + 3 = - 5 \\ \\ - x = - 8 \\ \\ x = 8$

Answer 2

Answer:

x+y=1

x=1-y

2x-3y=-5

2(1-y)-3y=-5

2-2y-3y=-5

2-5y=-5

-5y=-5-2

y=-7/-5

y=7/5

x+7/5=1

x=1-7/5

x=-2/5

Hope it helps..
