Answer:
1. 9 = x
2. y = 2
Just copy these steps on paper, then submit.
Writing it yourself will help you, trust me :)
1. 2(x + 5) = 3x + 1
2(x + 5) = 3x + 1
Distribute the 2
2x + 10 = 3x + 1
-1 -1
2x + 9 = 3x
-2x -2x
9 = x
2. 3y - 4 = 6 - 2y
3y - 4 = 6 - 2y
+4 +4
3y = 10 - 2y
+2y +2y
5y = 10
Divide both sides by 5
y = 10/5
y = 2
