Answer:

(1,4)

Explanation:

The two lines intersect at 1,4 when you graph them

The first equation is already in slope intercept from, so you know the y-int. is 7 and the slope is 3. However, the second equation must be put in slope int. form.

5x+2y=3

move the y to the other side

5x=3-2y

move the 3 to the other side, so the y variable is by itself

5x-3=-2y

divide by -2 to the equation is equal to y

(-5x/2)+(3/2)=y

you now know the y int. of the second equation is 3/2 and the slope is -5/2

know that you know the slop int. formulas for both equations you can graph them
