By considering the left hand side ($LHS$LHS) and right hand side ($RHS$RHS) of each equation, fill in the missing values to verify that the points of intersection on the graphs are solutions of the corresponding system of equations.
First, test the point $\left(1,-13\right)$(1,−13).

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $LHS$LHS | $=$= | $\left(\editable{}\right)^2$()2 | $RHS$RHS | $=$= | $\editable{}+14$+14 | |
| $=$= | $\editable{}$ | $=$= | $\editable{}$ | |||
|
$y=3x-16$y=3x−16 |

| $LHS$LHS | $=$= | $\editable{}$ | $RHS$RHS | $=$= | $3\times\editable{}-16$3×−16 | |
| $=$= | $\editable{}$ |
