    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given the 2 equations

    2x - y = 1 → (1)

    2x + 2y = 10 → (2)

    Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate x

    2x - 2x - y - 2y = 1 - 10, that is

    - 3y = - 9 (divide both sides by - 3)

    y = 3

    Substitute y = 3 into either (1) or (2) for corresponding value of x

    Substituting in (2)

    2x + 2 (3) = 10

    2x + 6 = 10 (subtract 6 from both sides)

    2x = 4 (divide both sides by 2)

    x = 2

    Solution is (2, 3)
