Question

Please someone help me !!!!!!

Answer 1

Step 1: solve the equation for 2x

-2x-2y=-84 → -2x-2y=-84
2x+3y=97 Move over the 3y → 2x=97-3y
Since we move the 3y to the left it will have a negative sign.

Step 2: substitute the give value of 2x into the equation -2x-2y=-84

-(97-3y)-2y=-84

Step 3: solve for y

y= 13

Answer: C) y=13

Answer 2

y = 13

Explanation:

-2x and 2x cancel out when added together.

-2y + 3y = y

-84 + 97 = 13

Therefore, y = 13.
