Answer:
x = 3, y = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + 2y = 6 → (1)
2x - 3 = 2y → (2)
In (2) subtract 2y from both sides and add 3 to both sides
2x - 2y = 3 → (3)
Adding (1) and (3) term by term will eliminate the y- term
3x = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 3
Substitute x = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
3 + 2y = 6 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
2y = 3 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 1.5
