Answer:
y=9, x=7
Explanation:
2x-y=5 --> equation 1
2x-5y=-31 --> equation 2
change signs of equation 1
-2x+y=-5
solving method
-2x+y=-5 (cut -2x and 2x because -2x+2x =0)
2x-5y=-31 (likewise +y-5y and -5-31)
-4y= -36 (since -4 is multiplying on right side it will divide)
y= -36/-4 (cut negative with negative and simplify equation)
y= 9
put value of y in equation 1
2x-y=5
2x-9=5
2x= 14
x=14/2
x=7
