What is the solution to this system of equations? x+y= 7
x = y + 3

A (5,2)
B (4,3)
C (2,5)
D (11/2, 3/2)

A. (5,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go to solve the equation you would first try to get y by itself in the first equation and you would do that by subtracting x on both sides. Then you would have y=7-x and then you would plug the second equation in for the x and get the equation y=7-y-3 because you distribute the negative sign of the x to both the y and 3. Then you combine like terms and get y=4-y and then add the y to both sides and get 2y=4 and then divide both sides by 2 and get y=2. Then you plug in y in the first equation and get x+2=7. Then you subtract 2 from both sides and get x=5.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
