When you're given a point and the slope of a line, it is often easiest to write its equation in
point-slope form.
This is

, where

is the ordered pair for the point you are given and m is the slope.
Here, you would write

. Then, you simplify to get to
slope-intercept form, which is

, where b is the y-intercept.
The correct answer is A.
Let's rewrite the equation with x and y on the left side of the equal sign.
5x-4y=8 --------(1)
3x-3y=3---------(2)
Divide equation (2) by 3,
x - y= 1
now we have,
5x-4y = 8 --------(1)
x - y = 1 ---------(2)
To eliminate x, multiply equation (2) by 5. This makes both the coefficients of x to be 5. Subtract the second equation from the first equation.
5x - 4y = 8
(2) * 5 5x - 5y = 5
(-) (+) (-)
----------------
0x +y =3
Therefore, y=3
Substitute the value of y, in any one of the two equations. Let's substitute y in the second equation.
x-3=1
x=4
x=4 and y=3
