For what value of a do the lines 5x–2y=3 and x+y=a intersect at a point on the y-axis?

pls , thx

  a = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set x=0 and solve for y to find the y-intercept in each case.

  first equation: y-intercept = -3/2

  second equation: y-intercept = a

To make these equal, we must have ...

  a = -3/2

1. 3

2. 4

3. 1

hope this ! have a great day.
