Question 181157: I need to solve this problem by the substitution method. I cannot figure out how to get the answer shown in the back of the book. The problem is:
x+4y=14
2x-y=1
Here are some of the ways I tried to solve it;
x(2x + 1) + 4y = 14
2(14-4y)-y=1
I tried moving the equation around like: y=2x +1 and x=14-4y.
I have spent over 2 hours on this question. The answers in the book are (2,3). Please help!!
