To find the value of y, you can solve the given system of equations:
1) 2x + 3y = 105
2) x + 2y = 65
First, let's solve equation 2 for x:
x = 65 - 2y
Now substitute the value of x in equation 1:
2(65 - 2y) + 3y = 105
130 - 4y + 3y = 105
130 - y = 105
-y = 105 - 130
-y = -25
Multiply both sides of the equation by -1 to isolate y:
y = 25
Thus, the value of y is 25.
