Question 414514
Plug x=1 and y=5 into both equations


Eq 1: 


5x-2y=-5


5(1)-2(5)=-5


5-10=-5


-5=-5 .... checks out


Eq 2:


3x-7y=-32


3(1)-7(5)=-32


3-35=-32


-32=-32 .... checks out



Since both equations are true when we plugged x=1 and y=5, this means that (1,5) is the solution to the system.



So the answer is Yes.
