Answer:
fourth option
Explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 2x - 3 → (1)
x + y = 18 → (2)
Substitute y = 2x - 3 into (2)
x + 2x - 3 = 18
3x - 3 = 18 ( add 3 to both sides )
3x = 21 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 7
Substitute x = 7 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = 2(7) - 3 = 14 - 3 = 11
Solution is x = 7, y = 11
