Answer: [tex]x=3\\y=2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
You con solve the system of equation with the Substitution method, as following:
- Substitute the second equation into the first equation.
- Solve for x:
[tex]2x+3y=12\\2x+3(x-1)=12\\2x+3x-3=12\\5x=12+3\\5x=15\\x=3[/tex]
- Substitute the value of x obtained above into the second equation to find the value of the variable y. Therefore, you obtain:
[tex]y=x-1\\y=3-1\\y=2[/tex]
