write a system of linear equations that has a solution of (-2,5)
---
y = -2x + 1
x + y = 3
=====================
and is best solved by substitution

"best" is not a clearly defined term in math.
==============
PS Don't put a space after the common. (-2,5), not (-2, 5)
It's irritating. Tho I admit irritating is not a clearly defined term in math.
