<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

x = 3

y = -8

<h2><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h2>

x + y = -5

x - y = 11

Since the y's will cancel out, we don't need to modify the two equations in any way.

Now, just add the two equations.

x + x = 2x

y + (-y) = 0

-5 + 11 = 6

2x = 6

Divide by 2.

x = 3

To find y, plug 3 in as "x" in one of the two equations.

3 + y = -5

y = -8

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

First row: 5(1)-4; 1; (1,1)

Second row: 5(2)-4; 6; (2,6)

Third row: 5(3)-4; 11; (3,11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the value of x to get the value for u then write the coordinates. So first value of x is 1 so put a 1 where the x is in this equation 5x -4. 5(1) - 4 =1 so the value of y is 1. So when x is 1 y is equal to 1 (1,1). Do the same for 2 and 3.
