Use elimination to solve each system of equations.

1. 3x+4y=29

6x+5y=43

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+4y=29 ... (1)

6x+5y=43 ... (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2

6x + 8y = 58 ... (3)

Substracting (2) from (3)

8y - 5y = 58 - 43

3y = 15

Dividing by 3

3y/3 = 15/3

y = 5

Substituting y = 5 into (2)

6x+5y=43

6x + 5 (5) = 43

6x + 25 = 43

6x = 43 - 25

6x = 18

Dividing by 6

6x/6 = 18/6

x = 3
