Respuesta :

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x-3y=-7[/tex]

[tex]5x=-2y+67[/tex]

=> [tex]x=\frac{1}{5}(-2y+67)[/tex]

=> [tex]x=-\frac{2}{5}y+\frac{67}{5}[/tex]

=> [tex]-\frac{2}{5}y+\frac{67}{5}-3y=-7[/tex]

=> [tex]-\frac{17}{5}y+\frac{67}{5} =-7[/tex]

=> [tex]\frac{-17}{5}y=-\frac{102}{5}[/tex]

=> y = 6

=> [tex]x=-\frac{2}{5} .6+\frac{67}{5}[/tex]

=> x = 11
