Answer:
(-1,-2) OR x = -1 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x + 1
y = -x -3
so you would first multiply everything on y = -x -3 by 3 and get 3y = -3x -9
so then you would add 3y = -3x -9 to y = 3x + 1 (<u> to eliminate the x</u> )which would be 4y = -8 then divide by 4 and get <u><em>y = -2</em></u>
then you plug in y = -2 into any one of the equations but to make it easier i am going to plug it into y = -x -3 so now it would be -2 = -x - 3 then, add 2 to both sides which would be 0 = -x -1 then add 1 to both side 1 = -x then multiply both sides by -1 and get <u><em>x = -1</em></u>
<u><em>SO your answer would be </em></u> (-1,-2) OR x = -1 and y = -2 ( both of them are correct but it depends on what the teacher taught you)
