Question

\begin{aligned} &2x+7y=1 \\\\ &y=4x -8 \end{aligned}

​

2x+7y=1
y=4x−8
​

Is (4,8) a solution to the system?

Answer 1

Explanation:

hello :

2x+7y=1 ...(*)

y=4x−8...(**)

(4;8) means x= 4 and y= 8

put this values in (*) and(**) :

2(4)+7(8) =1 62=1 false

8=4(4)-8 8=8 true

so :(4;8) is not solution for this system.
