Answer:
Okay you have isolate a variable. As long as you perform the some operation on both sides the equations holds true. So I'll multiply the bottom one by three. 3x - 3y = 27. Now if I add the equations together I get 5x is 35 or x is 7. Then plug it back into either equation. 7 minus what is 9? -2. Y is -2
Answer: x = 7 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x +3y = 8 ----------------(1)
x-y = 9 ----------------------(2)
multiply (2) by 2
2x-2y = 18--------------------(3)
subtract (2) from (3)
-5y = 10
Divide bothside by -5
y = -2
Similarly, multiply (2) by 3
3x-3y = 27-----------------------(4)
add (1) and (4) together
5x = 35
Divide bothside by 5
x= 7
Therefore, x =7 and y= -2
