Answer:

[tex]3x - 4y = 17ndx - y = 3 \\ 3x - x - 4y + 44y = 17 - 3 \\ 3x - x = 17 - 3 \\ 2x = 17 - 3 \\ 2x = 14 \\ x = 7 \\ \\ 7 - 4y = 3 \\ - 4y = - 4 \\ y = 1[/tex]

Answer:

x = 7

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = 17

x - 4y = 3

Solve x in the second equation.

x = 3 + 4y

Put x as 3 + 4y in the first equation and solve for y.

3(3 + 4y) - 4y = 17

9 + 12y - 4y = 17

9 + 8y = 17

8y = 17 - 9

8y = 8

y = 8/8

y = 1

Put y as 1 in the second equation and solve for x.

x = 3 + 4(1)

x = 3 + 4

x = 7
