Answer:

x = 10 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first equation by 5 and 2nd equation by 3 then subtract equation 1 and 2, we get,

10x+15y= 130

9x+15y=120

( -) (-) (-)

x= 10

substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get

2x + 3y = 26

2*10 + 3y = 26

3y = 26-20

y =6/3

y= 2.i hope this helps
