Answer:

x = 2

y = 6

Explanation:

We have a system of equations and are asked to solve for x and y.

y = -2x + 10

y = 3x

Since both equations start with y, we can subtitute.

3x = -2x + 10

Solve for x :

Add 2x to both sides :

5x = 10

Divide 5 from both sides :

x = 2

Now substitute x in the second equation because it's more easier :

y = 3(2)

3(2)

6

y = 6
