1st: You plug x+1 in for the value of y of the equation 3x-2y=5 2nd: Then you solve the equation 3x-2(x+1)=5 You will need to distribute the -2 into the x and 1 that is in the parentheses You will then get 3x-2x-2=5 Then combine like terms which are 3x and -2x You get x-2=5, then you will just add the 2 to both sides so then you will get x=7 3rd:Then you substitute the 7 that you just got in for the value of x for the equation y=x+1 4th:The equation would now be y=(7)+1 So then you will just add 7 and 1 together and you get y=8 *Your final answer is (7,8)*
