### Finding the Intersection Point of Two Lines 

#### Problem Statement:

Find the point \( (x_1, x_2) \) that lies on the line \( x_1 + 3x_2 = 13 \) and on the line \( x_1 - x_2 = 1 \).
See the figure for the graphical representation.

#### Graphical Representation:

A graph showing two lines intersecting is displayed next to the problem statement. The x-axis (horizontal) is labeled as \( x_1 \) and the y-axis (vertical) is labeled as \( x_2 \). The lines intersect at a single point, indicating the solution to the given system of equations.

#### Solution:

To find the point \( (x_1, x_2) \) that satisfies both equations, we solve the system of linear equations given:

1. \( x_1 + 3x_2 = 13 \)
2. \( x_1 - x_2 = 1 \)

Let's solve the system step-by-step.

1. Solve equation 2 for \( x_1 \):

   \( x_1 = x_2 + 1 \)

2. Substitute \( x_1 \) from equation 2 into equation 1:

   \( (x_2 + 1) + 3x_2 = 13 \)
   
   \( x_2 + 1 + 3x_2 = 13 \)
   
   Combine like terms:
   
   \( 4x_2 + 1 = 13 \)

   Subtract 1 from both sides:
   
   \( 4x_2 = 12 \)

   Divide by 4:

   \( x_2 = 3 \)

3. Substitute \( x_2 = 3 \) back into \( x_1 = x_2 + 1 \):

   \( x_1 = 3 + 1 = 4 \)

Thus, the point \( (x_1, x_2) = (4, 3) \) lies on both lines.

#### Answer:

The point \( (x_1, x_2) \) that lies on the line \( x_1 + 3x_2 = 13 \) and on the line \( x_1 - x_2 = 1 \) is \( (4, 3) \).
