Answer:

(1, -2) Option A in your list of possible answers

See attached image.

Explanation:

We need to graph the lines by using a couple of points on the plane for each equation.

For example:

the points (0, -3) and (3, 0) for the line y = x - 3

and the points (0, 1) and (-1, 4) for the line y = - 3 x + 1

Please see the lines in the attached image, and notice that they intersect at the point (1, -2), which gives you the solution for the system.
