\"\"

\

The equations are \"\" and \"\".

\

Elimination Method:

\

\"\"           ----------------------> (Equation 1)

\

\"\"          ---------------------> (Equation 2)

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

Apply division property of equality: If a = b then \"\".

\

\"\"                                 (Divide each side by 2)

\

\"\"                                      (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                                           (Divide: \"\")\"\"

\

To find the y, by substitute \"\" in equation (2).

\

\"\"

\

\"\"                              (Multiply: \"\")

\

Apply addition property of equality: If a = b then a + c = b + c.

\

\"\"              (Add 2y to each side)

\

\"\"                              (Apply additive inverse property: \"\")

\

\"\"                  (Add 2 to each side)\"\"

\

Apply commutative property of addition: \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\"                                 (Apply additive inverse property: \"\")

\

\"\"

\

Apply division property of equality: If a = b then \"\".

\

\"\"                                  (Divide each side by 2)

\

\"\"                           (Cancel common terms)

\

The coordinate is (7, 11.5).

\

\"\"

\

The solution of the point is (7, 11.5).
