Answer:

(4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = x + 2

x - 3y = -5

Rearrange the second equation to equal y.

x - 3y = -5

x + 5 = 3y

(x+5)/3 = y

Substitute into the first equation.

2y = x +2

2[(x+5)/3] = x + 2

(2x + 10)/3 = x + 2

2x + 10 = 3(x + 2)

2x + 10 = 3x + 6

10 - 6 = 3x - 2x

4 = x

Therefore, the correct ordered pair is (4,3) since x is equal to 4.
