Presumably this is a simultaneous equation and you have to find the values of x and y. x+3y = 7 x-3y = 1 Add both equations up which will eliminate 3y. 2x+0 = 8 Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of x. x = 4 Substitute 4 for x to find the value of y. x = 4 and y = 1

-2x plus 3y equals -7 3x plus y equals 16?

-2x + 3y = -7 3x + y = 16 simultaneous equations. Elimination a letter. Arbitrarily select 'y' Hence multiply the bottom eq'n by ' -3' Hence -2x + 3y = -7 -9x - 3y = -48 Add the eq'ns/ -11x = =55 x = -55/-11 = 5 When x = 5 , substitute into either eq'n for 'y' -2(5) + 3y = -7 -10 + 3y = -7 3y = 3 y = 1 Hence answer in ( x,y) fpr, is ( 5,1).
