Solve: 2 x + 5y + 5 = 0
2y=3x+17.
Find x and y


Sagot :

Answer:

x = -5 and y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2x + 5y +5 = 0

a) 2x + 5y = -5

b) 2y = 3x + 17

b) y = 3/2x + 17/2

a) 2x + 5(3/2x + 17/2) = -5

a) 2x + 15/2x + 85/2) = -5

a) 19/2x = -5 - 85/2

a) 19/2x = -95/2

a) x = (-95/2) / (19/2)

x = -5

b) 2y = 3(-5) + 17

b) y = 2/2

y = 1
