2\times 2x+3\left(5y-2\right)=24
Consider the second equation. Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,2.
4x+3\left(5y-2\right)=24
Multiply 2 and 2 to get 4.
4x+15y-6=24
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 5y-2.
4x+15y=24+6
Add 6 to both sides.
4x+15y=30
Add 24 and 6 to get 30.
Xy=0,15y+4x=30
To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.
Xy=0
Pick one of the two equations which is more simple to solve for y by isolating y on the left hand side of the equal sign.
y=0
Divide both sides by X.
4x=30
Substitute 0 for y in the other equation, 15y+4x=30.
x=\frac{15}{2}
Divide both sides by 4.
y=0,x=\frac{15}{2}
The system is now solved.
