Please help! Thank you!

Answer 1

D: (2, -3)

Explanation:

We have;

y = 3x - 9 - - - (1)

y = -2x + 1 - - - (2)

By substitution method, from eq 1, we see that: y = 3x - 9

Thus,let's put 3x - 9 for y in eq 2;

3x - 9 = -2x + 1

Rearranging to get;

3x + 2x = 9 + 1

5x = 10

x = 10/5

x = 2

Thus;

y = 3(2) - 9

y = 6 - 9

y = -3

Thus,the solution (x, y) = (2, - 3)
