The values of x and y that will make the equations true is shown on the graph below, which are: x = 3, and y = 1.

How to find the solution to a system of equations?

The problem given is simply asking us to find the point of intersection between the lines whose equations are y = -2/3x + 3 and y = 2x - 5.

In the graph shown below, the blue line represents y = -2/3x + 3 and the red line represents y = 2x - 5. Both lines intersect at (3, 1).

This implies that the solution to the system of the equations is (3, 1), that is, x = 3, and y = 1, which makes both equations to be true.
