Solve the System by Using Either the Substitution Method or the Elimination-By-Addition

question 81

Short Answer

Solve the system by using either the substitution method or the elimination-by-addition method, whichever seems more appropriate. $$\left( \begin{array} { c } \frac { 4 x } { 5 }& - &\frac { 3 y } { 2 }& = &\frac { 1 } { 5 } \\- 2 x &+& y& =& - 3\end{array} \right)$$ If the equations of the system are dependent, or if a system is inconsistent, so indicate. In those cases enter dependent or inconsistent . Otherwise, enter your answer as an ordered pair ( x , y ), enter x and y as fractions.
