The solution for given linear equation systems is (3,-4).

Option: C

Explanation:

The given equations are 5x+3y=3 and x+y= -1.

Let us isolate x value from equation 5x+3y=3.

5x = 3-3y.


x=(3-3y)/(5).

Substitute this x value in equation x+y= -1.


(3-3y)/(5)+y=-1.

After taking LCM for the denominator,


(3-3y+5y)/(5)= -1.

3-3y+5y=-5.

2y=-8.

y=-4.

For
x=(3-3y)/(5) substitute the y value.


x=(3-3(-4))/(5).


x=(3+12)/(5).


x=(15)/(5).

x=3.

∴ The solution is (3,-4).
