Answer:

(4, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x + 1 → (1)

x + 2y = 14 → (2)

Substitute y = x + 1 into (2)

x + 2(x + 1) = 14 ← distribute and simplify left side

x + 2x + 2 = 14

3x + 2 = 14 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

3x = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 4 + 1 = 5

Solution is (4, 5 )
