Answer is b. ( -1, -5)


Answer is b. (-1, -5)

Step by step

Substitute the x and y values into both equations to find equality

 Answer b. Makes both equations equal

2x + y = -7

2(-1) + (-5) = -7

-2 -5 = -7

-7 = -7
it equals now let’s do the 2nd one

x - y = 4

-1 -(-5) = 4

4 = 4

This one equals too. I did the math on the other three answers and they did not equal.
