Answer:

x = 2

y = 1

Explanation:

3x - y = 5..............(1)× 1

2x + y = 5...….......(2)× 1

3x - y = 5..............(3)

2x + y = 5.............(4)

Cancel y

3x + 2x = 5 + 5

5x = 10

Divide both sides by 5

x = 2

Substitute for the value of y

3x - y = 5

3(2) - y = 5

6 - y = 5

6 - 5 = y

1 = y

y = 1
