Answer:

It looks like there aren't many great matches for your search

Tip Try using words that might appear on the page that you’re looking for. For example, 'cake recipes' instead of 'how to make a cake'.

Answer:

(20, 12 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 76 → (1)

- 2x + 5y = 20 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term

0 +8y = 96

8y = 96 ( divide both sides by 8 )

y = 12

Substitute y = 12 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

2x + 3(12) = 76

2x + 36 = 76 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

2x = 40 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 20

solution is (20, 12 )
