(N/A) For the equation $5x - y = 5$,we can write $y = 5x - 5$. The solution table is:
$x$$0$$1$$2$
$y$$-5$$0$$5$

For the equation $3x - y = 3$,we can write $y = 3x - 3$. The solution table is:
$x$$0$$1$$2$
$y$$-3$$0$$3$

By plotting these points on a graph,we obtain two lines that intersect at the point $(1, 0)$.
The triangle is formed by the intersection of these two lines and the $y$-axis (where $x = 0$).
The vertices of the triangle are the intersection point of the two lines $(1, 0)$ and the points where each line intersects the $y$-axis,which are $(0, -3)$ and $(0, -5)$.
Thus,the coordinates of the vertices are $(1, 0)$,$(0, -3)$,and $(0, -5)$.
