Answer:

1.) (2,1) is a solution

2.) (4,3) is NOT a solution

Explanation:

1.) (2,1)

These are these mean (x,y)

2=x and 1=y

You want to substitute the numbers for the letters in the equation.

so.

2(2)+1=5

4+1=5

5=5, This statement is true so (2,1) is a solution.

2.) Same as above. 4=x and 3=y

4(4)-3(3)=10

16-9=10

7 Does Not Equal 10, Therefore, (4,3) is Not a solution to the equation.
