2x+5y=21, x+y=3
y=3-x
2x+5y=21
2x+5(3-x) =21
2x+15-5x=21
2x-5x+15=21
-3x+15=21
-3x=21-15
-x=6/3
-x=2
x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, Martin’s answer is incorrect.

A. He has to divide 76 by 19, instead of subtract 19 to 76.

The correct steps are:

19v = 76

v = 76/19

v = 4

B. This equation has one solution. It’s v=4
