Hello there!
The first thing you must do is to find the slope of the line. To do this, find the negative reciprocal of your current equation. Since your current slope is 3, the negative reciprocal of that would be -1/3, which would be your slope.
Now that you have your slope, plug it into the slope intercept equation as well as your known points:
(1,8) m(slope)=-1/3
8=1(-1/3)+b
Now, solve for b:
8=1(-1/3)+b
8=-1/3+b
b=25/3
Now that you have the slope and the b value, you can conclude that your equation would be:
y=-1/3x+25/3
The solution to the answer is as follows:
<span>x - y = 1...[1],
2x + y = 19...[2], {[1]+[2]}---> 3x = 30,
ie., x = 10. C is correct answer.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
Answer: x=13
Step-by-step explanation: Move all terms that don't contain x to the right side and solve.
