Solutions, x= 5.5, and y= -2.5, by @mananth(16949) are WRONG!!

It's extremely mind-blogging to see how this respondent "treated" this math problem, especially since it's EXTREMELY EASY
to solve! This author can only hope that this "solution" was IGNORED by everyone, especially the person who asked for help!

Correct solution set: {{{system(highlight(matrix(2,1, x = 3, y = - 5)))}}}</font></font></font></b></pre>
