Answer:

D) (1,8)

Explanation:

1. Solve 5x + y = 13 for y.


  • 5x + y = 13

  • 5x + y - 5x = 13 - 5x

  • y = -5x + 13

2. Substitute -5x + 13 for y in 10x - 3y = -14.


  • 10x-3y=-14

  • 10x-3(-5x+13)=-14

  • 25x-39=-14

  • 25x - 39 + 39 = -14 + 39

  • 25x = 25

  • (25x)/(25) = (25)/(25)

  • x = 1

3. Alright, we now have our x-coordinate, so the point looks like this so far: (1,y).

4. Substitute 1 for x in y = -5x + 13


  • y = -5x + 13

  • y=-5(1)+13

  • y = -5 + 13

  • y = 8

5. Okay, we have our x-coordinate and y-coordinate, so the point will look like this: (1,8).

Therefore, the intersection of the two lines is at (1,8).
