To identify the solution for the system of equations, we need to find the point where the two equations intersect, which means we need to look for a pair (x, y) that appears in both equations.

From the provided table:

  • For x=0:

    • y=2(0)5=5
    • y=03=3
  • For x=1:

    • y=2(1)5=3
    • y=13=2
  • For x=2:

    • y=2(2)5=1
    • y=23=1
  • For x=3:

    • y=2(3)5=1
    • y=33=0

The only pair (x, y) that has the same y-value for both equations is (2, -1).

Thus, the solution for the system is (2,1).
