How do you solve the system 2x – 2y = –2 and y = 5x – 19? Algebra Systems of Equations and Inequalities Linear Systems with Multiplication 1 Answer CW Sep 6, 2016 #x=5, y=6# Explanation: #2x-2y=-2# # => 2(x-y)=-2 # #=> x-y=-1 # #=> y=x+1# Substitute y=x+1 into y=5x-19 #=> x+1=5x-19# #4x=20# #x=5# Answer link Related questions How do you solve systems of equations by elimination using multiplication?
