Answer:

B: (2, -1)

Explanation:

1) First isolate the y in both equations

2) Set the equations equal to each other

3) Solve for x (you should get 2 and 5)

4) Insert the x values back in to get your y values

5) You should have gotten (2, -1) and (5, 2)

These are your two answers, but the question is only asking for one solution and (5,2) isn't one of the options, so it has to be (2,-1).
