Question

Solve the following system of equations. 2x + y = 3 x = 2y - 1 Make sure there are NO SPACES in your answer. Include a comma in your answer. ANSWER: {( a0 )}

Answer 1

Answer: your solution would be (1,1)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:
`x=1;y=1` or (1,1)

Explanation:

You can apply the Method of substitution.

Knowing that
`x = 2y - 1` (second equation), you can substitute it into the first equation and solve for the variable y:

`2x+y=3\\2(2y - 1)+y=3\\4y-2+y=3\\5y=3+2\\5y=5\\y=1`

Now you need to substitute
`y=1` into the second equation
`x = 2y - 1` to calculate the value of the variable x. Then:

`x = 2(1) - 1\\x=2-1\\x=1`

Then, the solution is:

`x=1;y=1` or (1,1)
