Question

Add the equations.
2x-3y = -1
+ 3x + 3y= 26

​

Answer 1

5x=25

Explanation:

A p e x

Answer 2

The answer in the procedure

Explanation:

we have

2x-3y=-1 ----> equation A

3x+3y=26 --> equation B

Solve the system by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

2x-3y=-1

3x+3y=26

----------------

2x+3x=-1+26

5x=25

x=25/5

x=5

Find the value of y

substitute the value of x in equation A or equation B and solve for y

2(5)-3y=-1

10-3y=-1

3y=10+1

y=11/3
