State a strategy for solving a linear system of equations. provide step by step instructions for the chosen strategy such that another student could easily follow?

First solve one of the two equations (whichever is easier) for either x or y, whichever variable is easier. Let's say you solved for x. Then plug what x equals into the 2nd equation as x. So if you got x = 2y + 1, plug that into your other equation and solve for y (you should get a number value).
Now take whatever y equals and plug that back into what you got when you solved for x (the x = 2y + 1) to get what x equals.

Oh yeah yeah the answer is oh yeah yeah
