You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Plug in pair into both equations to determine if true or false.
\n" ); document.write( "Let x=-5, y=2
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%28-5%29%2B3%282%29=-4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-10%2B6=-4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-4=-4\"true
\n" ); document.write( "and test the other equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28-5%29-4%282%29=-10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-5-8=-10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-13=-10\"false
\n" ); document.write( "Since one equation tested false the pair is not a solution of the system.
