Answer:

Yes the points (1,3) is the solution for the systems of equations that are shown

Explanation:

y = 4x - 1

plug in the numbers

3 = 4(1) - 1

3 = 4 - 1

3 = 3 so this is correct

2x + y = 5

plug in the numbers

2(1) + 3 = 5

2 + 3 = 5

5 = 5

so that means the points are also a solution for BOTH

Method 1 :

replace x and y by their value 1 and 3

3 = 4(1) - 1 = 4-1 = 3

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

correct

Method 2 :

y = 4x - 1

2x + y = 5

y = 4x - 1

y = -2x + 5

y - y = 4x - 1 - ( -2x + 5 )

0 = 4x - 1 + 2x - 5

6x - 6 = 0

6x = 6

x = 6/6 = 1

y = 4x - 1

y = 4(1) - 1

y = 3

correct
