Solution

The system of equations given is:

-6x + y = -3 5x - y = 2

Step 1: Solve one of the equations for one variable.

Let's solve the first equation for y:

y = 6x - 3

Step 2: Substitute the expression from step 1 into the other equation.

Substitute y = 6x - 3 into the second equation:

5x - (6x - 3) = 2 5x - 6x + 3 = 2 -x + 3 = 2 -x = 2 - 3 -x = -1 x = 1

Step 3: Substitute x = 1 into the first equation to solve for y:

-6(1) + y = -3 -6 + y = -3 y = -3 + 6 y = 3

So, the solution to the system of equations is x = 1, y = 3.
