A.) graph of two lines that intersect at the point negative 1, 1, with text on graph that reads One Solution negative 1, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The two simultaneous equation given are;

y+2x= -1

3y-x=4

multiply the first equation by 1 and the second equation by 2 to make the terms with x equal

y+2x = -1

6y-2x=8

-------------- ---add the terms with x to eliminate x

7y=7 -------divide both sides by 7 to remain with y

7y/7 =7/7

y= 1 -----use the value of y in the first equation

y+2x= -1

1+2x= -1

2x= -2

2x/2= -2/2

x= -1

The solution is (-1,1)

You can plot the equations on a graph tool as shown below to visualize the solution where the two linear equations intersect
