In this first question, I “eliminate” both the positive 6y from the equations by subtracting the equations.

For the second question, we can also substitute the second directly into the first equation because the “2y” in the first equation can be replaced by “x + 3” from the second equation, since 2y = x + 3, getting us

5x + x + 3 = 15
6x = 12
x = 2

And we continue with the second equation to get

2y = 2 + 3 = 5
y = 5/2
