Solve the following system of equations using substitution? what is the value of y
2x+3y=105
x+2y=65
Solution
2x+3y=105 ----(1)
x+2y=65 ------(2)
from equation 2 : x = 65 -2y
substitute value of x in equation (1)
2(65 -2y) +3y = 105
130 -4y +3y = 105
-y = -25
y = 25
Now find value of x : x= 65 -2y = 65 -50 = 15
x = 15 ; y = 25
