Answer:

Well, Let's solve the problem of 3ₓ + 2y = 7.

We got to add -2y of both sides: 3ₓ + 2y + -2y = 7 + -2y

3ₓ = -2y + 7

Then after that we got to divide both sides of 3:
(3x)/(3) =
(-2y + 7)/(3){

ₓ =
(-2)/(3) y +
(7)/(3)

Which your answer will be is ₓ -
(-2)/(3) y +
(7)/(3). Well, Let's solve ₓ - 2y = 5. You got to add -x of both sides: ₓ - 2y + -x = 5 + - x -2y = -x + 5. Then you do the same thing divide them both sides:
(-2)/(-2) =
(-x + 5)/(-2), Than: y =
(1)/(2) x +
(-5)/(2). So, Basically your answer will be is y =
(1)/(2) x +
(-5)/(2). Good Luck!

Answer:

y = -1

x = 3

Explanation:

First, change one of the equation into y = mx + b form.

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

3x/(3) = (7 - 2y)/(3)

x = 7/3 - 2/3y

Now, plug this equation into the x of the other equation.

(7/3 - 2/3y) - 2y = 5

7/3 - (7/3) - 8/3y = 5 - (7/3)

(-8/3y)/(-8/3) = (8/3)/(-8/3)

y = -1

To find x, substitute -1 for y in either equation and solve.

x - 2(-1) = 5

x + 2 - (2) = 5 - (2)

x = 3
