We have a system of equations:


\begin{cases}y=\text{ }{2x-1} \\ y={\text{ }x+3}\end{cases}

We can solve it using substitution, then


\begin{gathered} y=2x-1 \\ y=x+3 \\ \\ 2x-1=x+3 \end{gathered}

Now solve that last equation for x


\begin{gathered} 2x-1=x+3 \\ \\ x=4 \end{gathered}

Now we have the value of x, which let's use to solve for y


\begin{gathered} y=x+3 \\ \\ y=4+3 \\ \\ y=7 \end{gathered}

The solution of that system of equations are


S=(4,7)
