Answer: (4, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this by adding the equations

2x+3y=11

+x-3y=1

3x=12

Now we can solve

[tex]\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{12}{3} \\x=4[/tex]

Now that we know x=4 it can only be the first to options. Let's sub in the value of x to one of the original equations to find the value of y.

[tex]2(4)-3y=11\\8+3y=11\\8+3y-8=11-8\\\\3y=3\\\frac{3y}{3} =\frac{3}{3} \\y=1[/tex]

The answer is (4, 1)
