Answer: The value of y is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If y=5-3 and 3x-y=-1

Take y=5-3 first

y = 5 - 3

y = 2

Then, take 3x-y=-1, and put y = 2 in the Expression

3x-y=-1

3x - (2) = -1

3x - 2 = -1

3x = -1 + (-2)

3x = -1 -2

3x = -3

To get x, divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = -3/3

x = -1

Thus, the value of y is 2 while x is -1
