What is the value of y from 6x+5y=47 and 2x−y=5?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: y=4

Direct answer: D, y=4. Use substitution. From 2x−y=5, rearrange to y=2x−5. Substitute this expression in the first equation: 6x+5(2x−5)=47. Thus 6x+10x−25=47, so 16x=72 and x=9/2. Therefore y=2(9/2)−5=9−5=4. Verification gives 6(9/2)+5(4)=27+20=47 and 2(9/2)−4=9−4=5, so both equations are satisfied. A, y=2, does not produce a common solution in both equations. B, y=3, also fails when the corresponding x is tested in both equations. C, y=5 gives an incorrect value after substitution and does not satisfy the pair simultaneously. D, y=4, satisfies both equations and is correct. A useful warning is that changing 2x−y=5 to y=5−2x would reverse the sign incorrectly; carefully moving terms prevents this common error.
