For the system of equations x + y = 5 and 2x - y = 3:

1. Add both equations: 3x = 8, divide by 3 to get x = 8/3.

2. Substitute x back into either equation: (8/3) + y = 5, so y = 7/3.

Therefore, the solution is x = 8/3 and y = 7/3.

For the system of equations:

x + y=5

2x-y=3

We can solve this system of equations using elimination. Here's how:

1. Add the top and bottom equations together:

3x = 8

2. Divide both sides by 3:

x =
(8)/(3)

3. Substitute this value of x back into either of the original equations to solve for y:


((8)/(3)) + y = 5


y = (7)/(3)

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = 8/3 and y = 7/3.
