You isolate one variable. Let's say that x will be that variable in the first equation:
x-y=1
 +y  +y
x=y+1
So now you have the equation for x.  All you have to do is substitute it into the other:
x=y+1
(y+1)+y=3
Combine like terms and solve:
2y+1=3
    -1  -1
2y=2
2y/2=2/2
y=1
Now that you have the value of one, substitute it into either of the equations to find x.
If you put it in the first:
x-1=1
 +1  +1
x=2
If you put it into the other, you would get the same answer.
Therefore, y=1 and x=2

Help, please the question and thank you
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If A = (2, 3) then a dilation of scale factor 2 means that the x and y coordinates are multiplied by 2, so x = 2 x 2 = 4  and y = 3 x 2 = 6, so A' = (4, 6)

alexira [117]

Answer:(6,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

M is the midpoint of AB then ,

M = \frac{A+B}{2}

5=\frac{x+4}{2}     ,     -2=\frac{y-2}{2}

10=x+4  ,      -4=y-2

x=6          ,      y= -2

so, B= (6,-2)
