You can rewrite the second equation because you know what y equals, so you can write it as 2x + x + 3 = 9
3x + 3 = 9
- 3
3x = 6
÷ 3
x = 2
And now you use the equation of what y equals and substitute in the value of x, so y = 2 + 3
y = 5
So your final answer is A. (2, 5). I hope this helps!

An integer is a whole number. Sum means to add and since they are consecutive, there is only a difference of 1 between them.
1) 21 + 23: not consecutive
2) 23+24= 47: has to be at least 46
3) 22+23= 45: has to be at least 46
4) 24+25= 49: has to be at least 46
So we have two possibilities: either #2 or #4. Find least possible pair of integers.
x= first integer
x+1= second integer
x + (x+1) >= 46
2x + 1 >=46
2x>=45
x>=22.5
Answer:
The first integer has to be greater than or equal to 22.5. Since integers are whole numbers, round up to the next whole number. The least possible integers are #2) 23 and 24.
Hope this helps! :)
