Q. Is (1,1) a solution to this system of equations? 4x+10y=14x+6y=7Choices:(A) yes (B) no
Substitute and check first equation: Substitute the point (1,1) into the first equation, 4x+10y=14, to check if it holds true. Substituting x=1 and y=1 gives us 4(1)+10(1).
Calculate first equation: Perform the calculation for the first equation: 4(1)+10(1)=4+10=14, which matches the right side of the equation, so the point (1,1) satisfies the first equation.
Substitute and check second equation: Substitute the point (1,1) into the second equation, x+6y=7, to check if it holds true. Substituting x=1 and y=1 gives us 1(1)+6(1).
Calculate second equation: Perform the calculation for the second equation: 1(1)+6(1)=1+6=7, which matches the right side of the equation, so the point (1,1) satisfies the second equation as well.
Conclusion: Since the point (1,1) satisfies both the first and the second equations, we can conclude that (1,1) is indeed a solution to the system of equations.
