Answer: x=3, y=7
Step-by-step explanation: you can substitute in y in one equation for the other.
to get only one variable (x), you can set the sides = because they are both y.
you get 4x-5=2x+1
+5 on both sides
4x=2x+6
-2x on both sides
2x=6 --> x=3
now you can substitute it back in.
y=4(3)-5 --> y=12-5 --> y=7
