Answer

(4,7)

Work Step by Step

You have the equations:2x+2y=22 and y=2x-1. Solve: 2x+2(2x-1)=22 -plug in the second equation into the first and distribute- 2x+4x-2=22 -combine like terms- 6x-2=22 -add 2 to both sides- 6x=24 -divide both sides by 6- x=4 Plug in x=4 into one of the equations: 2(4)+2y=22 8+2y=22 2y=14 y=7 The solution is (4,7)
