(04.01 LC) The equations y = −3x + 1 and y = 2x − 4 are shown in the graph.

graph of y equals 2 times x minus 4 and y equals negative 3 times x plus 1

Which is the solution to the system of equations? (1 point)

Group of answer choices

(−2, −1)

(−2, 1)

(−1, −2)

(1, −2)

(1, −2)

Step-by-step explanation:

−3x + 1 = 2x − 4

−5x + 1 = − 4subtract 2x from both sides

-5x = -5subtract 4 from both sides

x  = 1divide both sides by - 5

now that you have x value find y by plugging in the x value in either one of the equations (I'll be using y = -3 +1)

y = -3(1)+1

y = -3+1multiply

y = -2add

the answer is b
