Consider the following system of equations:

y = 5x + 6
y = –x – 7

Which description best describes the solution to the system of equations?

Select one:
a. Line y = 5x + 6 intersects line y = –x – 7.
b. Lines y = 5x + 6 and y = –x – 7 intersect the x-axis.
c. Lines y = 5x + 6 and y = –x – 7 intersect the y-axis.
d. Line y = 5x + 6 intersects the origin.

a.

Cause the y and x you get from solving the system, is the intersection point :)
