Answer:

First solve for x or y in the first equation. Then substitute that number in the second equation for its same variable. Solve the second equation for that variable. Now you have your first number. Now you want to take that number and substitute it back into the first equation to find your second value. Put your two values in an ordered pair (x, y)
