Answer:
(4, 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 4y = - 4 → (1)
2x + y = 11 → (2)
subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate x
(2x - 2x) + (- 4y - y) = - 4 - 11
0 - 5y = - 15
- 5y = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 5 )
y = 3
substitute y = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
substituting into (2)
2x + 3 = 11 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 4
solution is (4, 3 )
