Solve (2x+y=11) and (x-y=1) by substitution.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ( (4,3) )

The direct answer is option B: (x,y)=(4,3). In substitution, first isolate a variable from the easier equation. From x-y=1, subtract x or rearrange to get y=x-1. Substitute into 2x+y=11: 2x+(x-1)=11, so 3x-1=11, 3x=12, and x=4. Then y=4-1=3. Checking gives 2(4)+3=11 and 4-3=1. Option B works because both equations hold. Option A, (3,5), gives 2(3)+5=11 but 3-5=-2, so it fails the second equation. Option C, (5,1), gives 10+1=11 but 5-1=4, not 1. Option D, (2,7), gives 4+7=11 but 2-7=-5. Therefore B is the only valid pair. Memory cue: when a coefficient is 1 or -1, isolate that variable first; always verify both original equations.
