Question

Is (2, 3) a solution to this system of equations?

2x + 5y = 19
X + 16y = 5
yes
no

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

To check if (2,3) is a solution to the system of equations, we simply have to plug the coordinate points into the two equations and see if it is valid.

`2*2+5*3=\\4+15=\\19\\\\19=19`

(2,3) belongs in the first equation.

`2+16*3=\\2+48=\\50\\\\50\\eq 5`

(2,3) does not belong in the second equation.

Therefore, (2,3) is not a solution to this system of equations.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
