Answer 1

To solve the system of equations given:

1. \( y = 15 \)
2. \( x = 17 - 2y \)

First, substitute the value of \( y \) into the second equation.

Substituting \( y = 15 \) into \( x = 17 - 2y \):

\[ x = 17 - 2(15) \] \[ x = 17 - 30 \] \[ x = -13 \]

Now, we have found the values of \( x \) and \( y \):

• \( x = -13 \)
• \( y = 15 \)

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is:

\((-13, 15)\)
