Answer

$x=1; y=1$

Work Step by Step

We need to solve for $x$ by subtracting $y$ from both sides. $x=2-y$ Now, plug the value of $x$ into the second equation. $(2-y)-y=0 \implies -2y=-2$ and $y=1$ We will plug the value of $y$ into the first equation, giving: $x+1=2 \implies x=1$ Thus, $x=1; y=1$
