To solve the system of equations:
we can use the method of substitution or elimination. Let's use the elimination method.First, let's multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 5 to make the coefficients of
and
equal:
This simplifies to:
Next, subtract the first equation from the second equation to eliminate
:
This simplifies to:
Solving for
:
Now, substitute
back into the first original equation:
This simplifies to:
Solving for
:
Thus,
So, the solution to the system of equations is:
