Find the ordered pair that makes both the equations below true

(3, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Algebraic solution

(1)  y = -⅔x + 3

(2) y =   2x  - 5

Set Equation (1) equal to Equation (2)

-⅔x + 3 = 2x - 5

Multiply each side by 3

-2x + 9 = 6x - 15

Add 15 to each side

-2x + 24 = 6x

Add 2x to each side

24 = 8x

Divide each side by 3

(3) x = 3

Substitute (3) into (2)

y = 2×3 - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1

The ordered pair that makes both equations true is (3, 1).

(b) Graphical solution

In the diagram below, the red line is the graph of Equation (1). The blue line is the graph of Equation (2). The point of intersection is at (3, 1).
