just need to get the equations equal together then solve for x which will give u the x-coordinate of intersection then u need to put it in which equation u want to find the y-coordinate of intersection point :

2x + 1 = 3x - 1

Add both sides 1

2x + 1 + 1 = 3x - 1 + 1

2x + 2 = 3x

Subtract both sides 2x

2x - 2x + 2 = 3x - 2x

x = 2

( This is the x-coordinate of intersection point )

_________________________________

Now to find the y-coordinate of the intersection point we have to put the value of x we found in of the equations :

y = 2x + 1

y = 2(2) + 1

y = 4 + 1

y = 5

_________________________________

Thus :

intersection point = ( 2 , 5 )

So the correct answer is option B .
