Question

!!!! HELP!!! What is the solution to this system of linear equations?

x-3y = -2
x + 3y = 16
(7,3)
(3,7)
(-2, -3)
(-3,-2)

Answer 1

The answer is (7, 3) if you need explanation let me know I’ll send the work

Answer 2

(7, 3)

Explanation:

get rid of the y by adding:

x=-2

+x=16

then add the equalities:

2x=14

divide by 2:

x=7

then subsitute the x in to find y!

7+3y=16

3y=16-7

3y=9

y=3
