Answer:

Let's solve your system by elimination.

3x+4y=29;6x+5y=43

Multiply the first equation by -2,and multiply the second equation by 1.

−2(3x+4y=29)

1(6x+5y=43)

Becomes:

−6x−8y=−58

6x+5y=43

Add these equations to eliminate x:

−3y=−15

Then solve−3y=−15for y:

−3y=−15

−3y −3 = −15

−3

(Divide both sides by -3)

y=5

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation:

3x+4y=29

Substitute5foryin3x+4y=29:

3x+(4)(5)=29

3x+20=29(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x+20+−20=29+−20(Add -20 to both sides)

3x=9

3x 3 = 9

3

(Divide both sides by 3)

x=3

Answer:

x=3 and y=5
