We can use the substitution method to solve this problem.
The second equation is

, so we can plug in 2x for 'y' in the first equation:


Multiply:

Combine like terms:

This is the x-value of our solution, we can plug this into any of the two equations to find the y-value:


Multiply:

This is the y-value of our solution. So our entire solution is (3, 6).
