Answer:

(1, 2)

Explanation:

A graphing calculator is a handy tool if all you want is a solution. It shows the solution as (x, y) = (1, 2).

__

Equate the two expressions for y:

-3x +5 = 4x -2

7 = 7x . . . . . . add 2+3x

1 = x . . . . . . . divide by 7

y = -3(1) +5 = 2 . . . . . . use the first equation to find y from x

The solution is (x, y) = (1, 2).
