Answer:

(-2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the equations over each other.

[tex] \binom{x - y = 1}{ - x + 3y = - 7 } [/tex]

Subtract the x values.

[tex] \binom{ - y = 1}{3y = - 7} [/tex]

Subtract on both sides.

[tex]2y = - 6[/tex]

Divide on both sides.

[tex]y = - 3[/tex]

Insert the y value into one of the equations.

[tex]x - ( - 3) = 1[/tex]

Get rid of the parenthesis.

[tex]x + 3 = 1[/tex]

Subtract on both sides.

[tex]x = - 2[/tex]

You could also individually plug in each solution into both equations to see if they are true.
