Answer:


x=(21)/(4)


y=(21)/(2)

Explanation:

equation (1):
(1)/(2) (2x+y)=(21)/(2)

equation (2): y=2x

solve the system by substitution

step1: sub (2x) for y in equation 1:


(1)/(2) (2x+y)=(21)/(2)


(1)/(2) (2x+2x)=(21)/(2)

step2: simplify the expression:


(1)/(2) (4x)=(21)/(2)


2x=(21)/(2)

(divide by 2 for both sides)


x=(21)/(4)

To find the value for y sub 21/4 for x in equation 2:

y=2x

y=2×(21/4)


y=(21)/(2)
