Answer:
x = 1
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 2y = 1
2x + 2y = 4
3x - 2y + 2x + 2y = 1 + 4
3x + 2x = 5
5x = 5
5x ÷ 5 = 5 ÷ 5
x = 1
2x + 2y = 4
2(1) + 2y = 4
2 + 2y = 4
2 - 2 + 2y = 4 - 2
2y = 2
2y ÷ 2 = 2 ÷ 2
y = 1
Check:
3x - 2y = 1
3(1) - 2(1) = 1
3 - 2 = 1
x and y being 1 works for the first equation.
2x + 2y = 4
2(1) + 2(1) = 4
2 + 2 = 4
x and y being one works for both equations.
