Answer:

(11, 13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

3x - 2y = 7 => (eqn. 1)

y = x + 2 => (eqn. 2)

Substitute y = (x + 2) in eqn. 1.

3x - 2(x + 2) = 7

Use -2 to multiply each term you have in the parentheses. (This is where Carolyn got it wrong)

3x - 2x - 4 = 7 (-2*4 = -4 not +4)

x - 4 = 7

Add 4 to both sides

x = 7 + 4

x = 11

Substitute x = 11 in eqn. 2.

y = x + 2

y = 11 + 2

y = 13

Solution: (11, 13)
