Answer:

  • B. (4,9)

Explanation:

Using substitution to solve the system of equations:-

substitute y-5 for x in second equation and solve for y:-

  • x+2y=22
  • (y-5)+2y=22
  • y+2y-5=22
  • 3y-5=22
  • 3y-5+5=22+5
  • 3y=27
  • 3y/3=27/3
  • y=9

Now, to solve for x, plug in 9 into y:-

  • y-5=x
  • 9-5=x
  • 4=x

Therefore, (4,9) satisfies the given system of equations.
