Write the each equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

Graph the equations and find the intersection point.

The graphs appear to intersect at (1, 5).

Check the solution:

Check the solution by substituting the coordinates in each equation.

Substitute (1, 5) in equation 1.

.                   The statement is true.

Substitute (1, 5) in equation 2.

.                   The statement is true. \ \

The graphs intersect at (1, 5).Since there is one solution, this system is consistent and independent.
