Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y = 2x + 1

x + 3y = 10

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitution

  1. Substitute in y:                                                                                                 x + 3(2x + 1) = 10
  2. Distribute 3:                                                                                                      x + 6x + 3 = 10
  3. Combine like terms:                                                                                       7x + 3 = 10
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides:                      7x = 7
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 7 on both sides:                                x = 1

Step 3: Solve for y

  1. Define original equation:                                                                               y = 2x + 1
  2. Substitute in x:                                                                                                y = 2(1) + 1
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                           y = 2 + 1
  4. Add:                                                                                                                 y = 3

Step 4: Find difference

y = 3

x = 1

  1. Subtract:                                                                                                          3 - 1 = 2
