Question 255100
I have two questions: 
Solve the system and find the point of the intersection. 
The sum of two numbers is 2. If one number is subtracted from the other, their difference is 8.
---
x + y = 2
x - y = 8
---
Add and solve for "x":
2x = 10
x = 5
---
Since x + y = 2, y = 2-5 = -3
-------------------------------------- 

The sum of three times a first number and twice a second number is 8. If the second number is subtracted from twice the first number, the result is 3.
3x + 2y = 8
2x - y = 3
------
y = 2x-3
Substitute for "y" and solve for "x":
3x + 2(2x-3) = 8
3x + 4x - 6 = 8
7x = 14
x = 2
---
Since y = 2x-3
y = 2*2-3 = 1
====================
