Answer:

(2, 4)

Explanation:

"What is the solution of this system of equations?"

Substitute 3x - 2 for y in the second equation, obtaining:

3x - 2 - 2 = x

Consolidate like terms: subtract x from both sides and add 4 to both sides:

2x = 4. Thus, x = 2. Substituting 2 for x in the first equation, we get:

y = 3(2) -2 = 4.

Thus, the solution is (2, 4)
