Answer:

A. (2,3)

Explanation:

There are several ways you could go about answering this question.

Method 1:

You could use each of the answers listed as a word bank and replace each y and x format with the answers given

Method 2:

you use the elimination or substitution processes.

Method 3:

You can simply just look at where these 2 lines intercept each other and use those points as an answer.
