Given the linear system: 5x + 3y = 17
-8x - 3y = 9

What is the correct formula for the solution to the linear system?

part 1 answer = 8

part 2 answer = 72

step-by-step explanation:

part 1 explanation = add all of the numbers, then divide by how many numbers you have. so, 200/25 = 8.

part 2 explanation = not gonna lie, this is hard to explain, so just google how to do it.
