Answer:
x=3 y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 5y = 11
+ 3x + y = 13
Add the equation (add the 5y and y. Then add the 11 and 13). The threes cancel each other out. It then leaves us with the equation:
6y = 24
Divide both sides by 6 to isolate the variable.
y=4.
Then just substitute the variable into any of the equations above. (I chose the equation on top)
-3x + 5(4) = 11
Then solve
-3x + 20 = 11 (then subtract 20 from both sides)
-3x = -9 (then divide both sides by -3)
x=3
