One equation in a linear system is x + y = 1. Is it possible for the system to have a

solution of (0, 0)? (100, -49)? Explain your reasoning.

answer:

no, because 0+0≠1 and 100+-49≠1 so the values are not a part of the system.

Explanation:

for this question, plug in the x & y values into the equation x+y=1. if the values add up to be 1, then it's possible for the system to have those solutions. hope that helps!
