Solving both equations for y we get y=2x-5 and y=-3x%2B5. Substitute some values of x to get the value of y, plot the point, connect to draw the lines, and see where they interesect. It appears from the graph the intersection is (2,-1). To verify the solution, substitute 2 for x into both equations and each time you should get -1.
