You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve this system of equations using any method.
---------------------
3x – y = 4
x + 2y = 13
----
Multiply thru the top equation by 2 to get:
6x - 2y = 8
x + 2y = 13
------------
Add and solve for "x":
7x = 21
----
x = 3
-----
Solve for "y":
3 + 2y = 13
2y = 10
y = 5
-----
Ans: (3,5)
