Which ordered pair is the solution to this system of equations?

y=2x-3

y=7-0.5x

(4, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x - 3

y = 7 - 0.5x

y is already isolated on both equations, set them equal to each other:

2x - 3 = 7 - 0.5x

add 3 to both sides:

2x = 10 - 0.5x

add 0.5x to both sides:

2.5x = 10

divide by 2.5:

x = 4

plug in 4 for x on either equation and solve for y:

y = 2 (4) - 3

y = 8 - 3

y = 5
