$y = \frac{3}{5} x + 7$ $y = \frac{1}{5} x + 5$

Step 1

Combine $\frac{3}{5}$ and $x$ .

$y = \frac{3 x}{5} + 7$

$y = \frac{1}{5} x + 5$

Step 2

Combine $\frac{1}{5}$ and $x$ .

$y = \frac{x}{5} + 5$

$y = \frac{3 x}{5} + 7$

Step 3

Create a graph to locate the intersection of the equations. The intersection of the system of equations is the solution.

$(- 5, 4)$
