Question

instruction active solving a system of equations find the solution to this system: equation 1: ( 5x - 2y = -11 ) (2) equation 2: ( -2x + 5y = 17 ) (5) step 2: which is the next step to solve for ( y )? choose by 21 on both sides of the equation step 3: which is the next step to solve the system of equations for ( x )? substitute 3 for ( y ) in one of the equations step 4: which operation will isolate the ( x )-variable term? add 6 to both sides of the equation step 5: what is the last step to solve for ( x )? divide both sides of the equation by 5 subtract 5 from both sides of the equation

Explanation:

Step1: Identify final x equation

After Step 4, we have $5x = -5$.

Step2: Isolate x variable

To solve for $x$, divide both sides by 5.
$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{-5}{5}$

Answer:

Divide both sides of the equation by 5
