Final answer:

When checking the Point of Intersection (POI) of two equations, you substitute the coordinates of the POI (x, y) into both equations and check if they yield true statements. If both equations evaluate to true, then the POI makes both equations true.

Step-by-step explanation:

When checking the Point of Intersection (POI) of two equations, you substitute the coordinates of the POI (x, y) into both equations and check if they yield true statements. If both equations evaluate to true, then the POI makes both equations true, so the statement in the question is TRUE. This is an important step in verifying the accuracy of the POI on the graph.
