Answer:
(6 , -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+ y = 11 ----------------(I)
y = 11 - 2x --------------------(II)
Multiply the whole equation by 2
x - 10y = 16 --------------------(III)
Substitute y = 11- 2x in equation (III)
x - 10(11 - 2x) = 16
x - 110 + 20x = 16
21x - 110 = 16
21x = 16 +110
21x = 126
x = 126/21
x = 6
Plugin x = 6 in equation (II)
y = 11 - 2*6
y = 11 - 12
y = -1
