2х + 5y = 16
3х – 5y = - 1

x=3; y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y=16

   -5y   -5y

2x=-5y+16

/2   /2   /2

x=-y+8

*substitute*

3(-y+8)-5y=-1

-7y+24-5y=-1

-12y+24=-1

        -24  -24

-12.5y=-25

/-12.5    /-12.5

y=2

*replace*

2x+5(2)=16

2x+10=16

    -10   -10

2x=6

/2  /2

x=3

*solve to verify*

1. 2(3)+5(2)=16

6+10=16

16=16

2. 3(3)-5(2)=-1

9-10=-1

-1=-1

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3
