Answer:

x = 4, y = 3 → (4, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2y=x+2&\text{subtract x from both sides}\\x-3y=-5\end{array}\right\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-x+2y=2\\x-3y=-5\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad-y=-3\qquad\text{change the signs}\\.\qquad\boxed{y=3}\\\\\text{put the value of y to the second equation:}\\\\x-3(3)=-5\\x-9=-5\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=4}[/tex]
