Answer:

(4, 3)

Explanation:

Since the x is by itself in the first equation already, we can solve for y in the next equation and substitute for x.

(y+1)+2y=10

3y+1=10

-1 -1

3y=9

y=3

Next, we need to find x. To do this, we need to substitute y with 3 in one of the equations.

x=(3)+1

x=4

The ordered pair is finally (4, 3).

Hope this helps!! I literally just learned this today...have a great day ❤
