Solve the following for x please!

1.) 2x + y = 3 2.) x - 2y = -1 if equation 1 is multiplied by 2 and then the equations are added, the result is a.3x = 2 b.3x = 5 c.5x = 5

Idon’t understand this.. will someone ? will mark brainliest along with 20 points.

The tuition costs, c, for a local community college are modeled by c(h) = 250 + 200h, where h represents the number of credit hours taken. the local state university has tuition costs, s, modeled by the function s(h) = 300 + 180h. how many credit hours will a student have to take for the two tuition costs to be equal? round the answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.
