3x + (x+3) = 19
4x + 3 = 19
4x = 16
x = 4
y= x+3
y= 4+3
y= 7

Answer:
a. (-1/2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficients of x have opposite signs, so the x-terms can be eliminated by adding the two equations.
(2y -12x) +(3y +12x) = (16) +(9)
5y = 25 . . . . . . simplify
y = 5 . . . . . . . . .divide by 5
This matches only answer choice A.

<em>Check</em>
The other part of answer choice A is x = -1/2. We can test this to make sure it works:
2(5) -12(-1/2) = 16
10 + 6 = 16 . . . . . . true, the selected answer works OK
