Answer:

No, (2, 10) is not a solution to the system

Explanation:

The given set of equations are -

-3X - 4Y = 4 --- Eq(1)

-52X + Y = 2--- Eq (2)

Multiplying equation 2 by 4, we get

-3X - 4Y = 4 --- Eq(1)

4 *(-52X + Y = 2)--- Eq (2)

-3X - 4Y = 4 --- Eq(1)

-208X + 4Y = 8--- Eq (2)

Now we will add equation 1 and 2

-211 X = 12

X = 12/211

Hence, the given set of solution does not fit for the given two equations
