Solve Systems of Linear Equations Practice Test

Solve the system of equations using elimination:

$$2x+3y=13$$

$$2x-y=5$$

What is the solution $ (x, y) $?

A school store sells notebooks and pens. A notebook costs $x$ dollars and a pen costs $y$ dollars.

• 2 notebooks and 3 pens cost $11$.
• 1 notebook and 2 pens cost $7$. This gives the system: $$2x+3y=11$$ $$x+2y=7$$ What is the solution $(x,y)$?
