Question

What is the solution x+2y=7 and x-2y=-1

Answer 1

`\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+2y=7\\x-2y=-1\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\\\.\qquad\qquad2x=6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad\qquad \boxed{x=3}\\\\\text{Put the value of x to the first equation}\\\\3+2y=7\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\2y=4\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\boxed{y=2}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{x=3\ and\ y=2\to(3,\ 2)}`
