Answer:
(x, y) = (4, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We notice that the coefficients of y are opposites, so we can eliminate y by adding the two equations together.
(4x -3y) +(x +3y) = (1) +(19)
5x = 20 . . . . . . simplify
x = 4 . . . . . . . . .divide by 5
Substituting into the second equation gives ...
4 +3y = 19
3y = 15 . . . . . . . subtract 4
y = 5 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
The solution is (x, y) = (4, 5).
