Answer 1

x = (5/6 , 0) y = (0 , 5/3)

Explanation:

for x you plug in a zero for y so it looks like this

6x-3(0)=5

6x=5

x=5/6

then for y you plug in 0 for x

6(0)-3y=5

-3y=5

y=-5/3

Answer 2

C. (-2, -17/3)

Explanation:

6x - 3y = 5

Try A. (6, -3)

6(6) - 3(-3) = 36 + 9 = 45

45 does not equal 5, so A is not the answer.

Try B. (9, 16/3)

6(9) - 3(16/3) = 54 - 16 = 38

38 does not equal 5, so B is not the answer.

Try C. (-2, -17/3)

6(-2) - 3(-17/3) = -12 + 17 = 5

5 equals 5, so C is the answer.

Try D. (1, -11/3)

6(1) - 3(-11/3) = 6 + 11 = 17

17 does not equal 5, so D is not the answer.
