Question

Find the X and Y values.

The answer should be written as a coordinate point (x,y)

(reward 50 points)

Answer 1

The solution is (10, 11)

Explanation:

We have the following equations to work with

`(1)/(2)x + 6 = 2x + 31\\2.5x + 6 = 31\\`

Subtract 6 from both sides

`\\\\\Rightarrow 2.5x = 31 - 6 = 25`

Divide by
`2.5x` on both sides:

`\Rightarrow x = (25)/(2.5) = 10`

Substitute for x in the first equation

`y = (1)/(2)x + 6\\\\\rightarrow y= (1)/(2)* 10 + 6\\\\\rightarrow y=5 + 6 = 11\\\\`

So the So the solution is
