Answer:

a = 17

c = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

2a + 3c = 61

3a + 5c = 96

3a = 96 - 5c   (solve for 'a'. Then you can substitute)  

a = 32 - [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] c

2(32 - [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]c) + 3c = 61     (Substitute)

64 - [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]c + 3c = 61        ([tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex] = 3 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]. So subtracting, adding a negative, leaves [tex]\frac{-1}{3}[/tex])

-[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] c= -3  

c = 9

2a + 3(9) = 61

2a + 27 = 61

2a = 34

a = 17
