12 people can comfortably fit in a 4x4 foot square. Use this value to estimate the size of a crowd that is 10 feet deep on both sides of street along a 2 mile section of a parade route

hope this helps you out if i doesnt just comment and ill see what i can do

2x + 3y = 12 (1st)

5x − y = 13 (2nd) ---> y = 5x - 13

Substitute y = 5x - 13 into (1st) equation

2x + 3(5x - 13) = 12

2x + 15x - 39 = 12

17x - 39 = 12

17x = 51

x = 3

substitute x = 7 into y = 5x - 13

y = 5x - 13

y = 5(3) - 13

y = 15 - 13

y = 2

Answer

solution x = 3 and y = 2
