You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve the following system of equations and state answer in coordinate pairs?x=2y and x^(2)+y^(2)=(5)/(16) ----
 substitute for "x and solve for "y":
 (2y)^2 + y^2 = (5/16)
 ---
 5y^2 = 5/16
 ----
 y^2 = 1/16
 y = +(1/4) or y = -1/4
 ------
 Solve for "x":
 x = 2y
 If y = 1/4, x = 1/2; If y = -1/4, x = -1/2
