The correct Answer is:
To solve the system of linear equations given by: 1. \( 2x + 5y = 1 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( 2x + 3y = 3 \) (Equation 2) we will use the elimination method. ### Step 1: Align the equations We write the equations clearly: \[ \begin{align*} (1) & \quad 2x + 5y = 1 \\ (2) & \quad 2x + 3y = 3 \end{align*} \] ### Step 2: Eliminate \( x \) To eliminate \( x \), we can subtract Equation 2 from Equation 1. \[ (2x + 5y) - (2x + 3y) = 1 - 3 \] This simplifies to: \[ 5y - 3y = -2 \] Which gives us: \[ 2y = -2 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( y \) Now we solve for \( y \): \[ y = \frac{-2}{2} = -1 \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( y \) back into one of the original equations We can substitute \( y = -1 \) back into Equation 2 to find \( x \): \[ 2x + 3(-1) = 3 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2x - 3 = 3 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( x \) Now we solve for \( x \): \[ 2x = 3 + 3 \] \[ 2x = 6 \] \[ x = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \] ### Step 6: Final solution Thus, the solution to the system of equations is: \[ x = 3, \quad y = -1 \] ### Summary of the solution: The values of \( x \) and \( y \) are: \[ (x, y) = (3, -1) \]
