{x + 4y = 13
{x – y = 3

x = 5 and value of y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

using substitution method

let;

x + 4y = 13 equation 1

x - y = 3 equation 2

from equation 2

x - y = 3 eqn 2

x = y + 3 equation 3

put x = y + 3 in equation 1

x + 4y = 13 equation 1

y + 3 + 4y = 13

5y = 13 - 3

5y = 10

divide both sides by 5

i.e

5y/5 = 10/5

y = 2

sustitue for y  = 2 in equation 3

x = y + 3 equation 3

x = 2 + 3

x = 5

therefore the value of x = 5 and value of y = 2

to check if your answwer is correct slot in the value of x and y in any of the equation . e.g

from equation 3

x = y + 3 equation 3

5= 2 + 3

5 =5 proved
