Answer:
x = 11, y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = x + 2 → (1)
5x - 4y = 3 → (2)
Substitute y = x + 2 into (2)
5x - 4(x + 2) = 3 ← distribute and simplify left side
5x - 4x - 8 = 3
x - 8 = 3 ( add 8 to both sides )
x = 11
Substitute x = 11 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = 11 + 2 = 13
