Answer:
x = 5 , y = 2
Explanation:
Equate corresponding coordinates in both ordered pairs
3x - 2y = 11 → (1)
x + y = 7 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate y
2x + 2y = 14 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
5x + 0 = 25
5x = 25 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (2)
5 + y = 7 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
y = 2
