You didn't write the equation you like to be solved. It is clear though, from the options you gave, that there are two equations you want to be solved simultaneously. I will give an example to illustrate this, and you may apply the process in solving your problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x + y = 7 (1)

x - 2y = -2(2)

SOLVING USING THE SUBSTITUTION METHOD.

From (1), make y the subject.

y = 7 - x (3)

Substitute the value of y in (3) into (2)

x - 2(7 - x) = -2

x - 14 + 2x = -2

x + 2x = -2 + 14

3x = 12

Divide both sides by 3

x = 12/3 = 4

Now use x = 4 in (3)

y = 7 - 4 = 3

Therefore, ( x, y) = (4, 3)

SOLVING USING THE ELIMINATION METHOD.

x + y = 7 (1)

x - 2y = -2(2)

First, let us eliminate x by subtracting (2) from (1)

(x + y) - (x - 2y) = 7 - (-2)

y + 2y = 7 + 2

3y = 9

Divide both sides by 3

y = 9/3 = 3

To eliminate y, first multiply (1) by 2, and add the result to (1)

2 × (1): 2x + 2y = 14 (3)

x - 2y = -2(2)

3x = 12

x = 12/3 = 4

Therefore (x, y) = (4, 3)
