D looks like the best answer
(3.75, 5.5)
(Work is attached )
When using substitution , you substitute with a variable that is already by itself. In this case, the variable “y” is already by itself and equal to x+ 1.75 . you substitute that for the the y in the other equation and solve for the other variable which is “x”. After you solve for x , to find your y value, you have to substitute the x value in for either equation.
X= - 0.4231
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The given equation can be expressed as

Here to find the value of X BODMAS rule is applied
BODMAS= Brackets Orders Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction
Step 2:
Expand the given equation
