Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
plug them in and see if we get equal results
4x-2y=10
4(-3)-2(-11)=10
-12+22=10
10=10
yes this is a solution
4x-2y=10
4(1)-2(-3)=10
4+6=10
yes this is a solution

if the sums were not equal then they would not be solutions
