You can put this solution on YOUR website! Graph the two equations using a graphing to get
From the graph, we see that the two lines intersect at the point (-4,5)
So the solutions are x = -4 and y = 5

Hi,
finding two ordered pairs (x,y) for each line:
x+y=1 ⇒ (0,1) and (1,0) on this line (green)
y=2x+13 ⇒ (0,13) and (-13/2,0) on this line (blue)
plot points and connect with their respective lines
Intersect at (-4,5), the ordered pair that is the solution for this system
