    Option D is correct

    (-3, - 1)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    equation 1 is

    y = - 2x - 7

    and equation 2 is

    2y - x = 1

    so from 1 we have y = - 2x - 7 put in 2

    2 (-2x - 7) - x = 1

    -4x - 14 - x = 1

    - 5x = 1 + 14

    X = 15/-5

    X = - 3

    put in equation 1

    Y = - 2 (-3) - 7

    Y = 6 - 7

    Y = - 1
