Sagot :

are they being multiplied or added or subtracted?

Answer:

(3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x +y = 8

-3x   =-3x

Y=-3x +8 Substitute into 1st equation           y=-3x+8

2x-7(8-3x+8)= 13                                                 -3(3) + 8

2x-56+21x= 13                                                       -9 +8

23x-56 =13                                                        y = -1    

     +56= +56

23x   =      69

23             23

   x = 3

solution (3, -1)
