To identify the solution for the system of equations based on Jian's table, we need to look for the x-value(s) for which the y-values from both equations are equal.

From the table:

  • For \( x = 0 \):

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

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

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

    • \( y = 2(3) - 5 = 1 \)
    • \( y = 3 - 3 = 0 \)

We see that when \( x = 2 \), both equations yield \( y = -1 \).

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is \( (2, -1) \).

So the correct response is:

(2,−1)
