So you have the equations
x + 4y = 6
x + 3y = 5
Subtract the two equations.

You get y = 1.
The only answer with a value of y = 1 is A

A is your answer.
Have a nice day! :)

Answer:

A(2,1)

Explanation:

We are given that system of equation


x+3y=5


x+4y=6

We have to solve the system

Subtract equation first from equation second

Then, we get


y=1

Substitute the value of y in equation I

Then, we get


x+3(1)=5


x=5-3=2

Hence, the option A is true.

Answer:A(2,1)
