Answer:

(x, y) = (4, 9)

Explanation:

Perhaps the ordered pair you want is the one that satisfies both equations.

We can find that by equating the expressions for y:

x +5 = 3x -3

8 = 2x . . . . . . . . add 3-x to both sides

4 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

y = 4+5 = 9

The ordered pair is (x, y) = (4, 9).
