Answer fast? What?

x + 2y = 17...Equation A

8x + 3y = 45...Equation B

Solve A for x.

x = 17 - 2y

Plug this into B to solve for y.

8(17 - 2y) + 3y = 45

136 - 16y + 3y = 45

136 - 13y = 45

-13y = 45 - 136

-13y = -91

y = -91/-13

y = 91/13

y = 7

To find y, plug x = 7 into either equation to find x.

I will use Equation A.

x + 2y = 17

x + 2(7) = 17

x + 14 = 17

x = 17 - 14

x = 3

Answer: x = 3, y = 7
