Answer:
x = 1 1/3 and y = 2 7/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the two equations:
[tex]5x + 3y = 15\\2x + 3y = 11[/tex]
3x = 4
divide both sides by 3
x = 4/3
Substitute this into the equation 5x + 3y = 15
[tex]5(\frac{4}{3} ) + 3y = 15\\\frac{20}{3} + 3y = 15\\3y = 8\frac{1}{3} \\y = 2\frac{7}{9}[/tex]
