Answer:

(-5, -1)

Explanation:

To plot the first equation
y = -(6)/(5)x - 7, you need to find two points on its line. One point you could find is by plugging in 0 for x, so you would get y = 0 - 7 = -7.


y = -(6)/(5)(0)-7=-7

Point 1: (0,-7)

You can easily find another point by setting x to -5, which would get you a y value that is on the graph and is easy to calculate.


y = -(6)/(5)(-5)-7 = 6-7=-1

Point 2: (-5, -1)

To plot the second equation
y = (2)/(5)x+1, just follow the steps for the first equation.


y=(2)/(5)(0)+1=1

Point 3: (0, 1)


y = (2)/(5)(5)+1 = 2+1=3

Point 4: (5, 3)

Plot the first line with points 1 and 2, and plot the second line with points 3 and 4.

You should get the solution of the system of equations at the intersection of the two lines at (-5, -1)
