In this case we have the point (-2,4), since this represents the x and y coordinates of the solution of the system of equations, then:

x= -2

y= 4

Let's create the pair of equations:

1. ax+by=c

2. ex+fy=g

Randomly let's define the values of the coefficients a, b, e and f:

a= 1

b=2

e= -1

f= 4

With these values and the known coordinates of the solution, let's replace into the expressions of the system of equations and solve for c and g, like this:
