Substitute the value of x and y in the equation to check whether points are solution of equation or not.


\begin{gathered} -3\cdot(-6)-5\cdot1=13 \\ 18-5=13 \\ 13=13 \end{gathered}

In second equation,


\begin{gathered} -(-6)+4\cdot1=10 \\ 6+4=10 \\ 10=10 \end{gathered}

So point (-6,1) satisfy both the equations. Hence point is a solution of equations.

Answer: Yes, (-6,1) is a solution to the system.
