Question 215581
is the ordered pair (5,2) a solution to the given equations 2x-y=8 and 3x+2y=20?
----
Substitute x = 5 and y = 2 into each equation and see if you get two true
statements.
----
2*5-2 = 8
10-2 = 8;;;;;;yes
-------------------------
3*5+2*2 = 20
15+4 = 20;;;;;;;no
============================
(5,2) is not a solution for the system
