Answer:

x = 5 and y = 5/3

Explanation:

We can solve for y in terms of x by substituting the first equation into the second equation:

2x + 3y = 15

2x + 3( x/3 ) = 15 (substitute x=3y from the first equation)

2x + x = 15

3x = 15

x = 5

Now that we have the value of x, we can substitute it back into the first equation to solve for y:

x = 3y

5 = 3y

y = 5/3

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 5 and y = 5/3.
