Q. Is (2,10) a solution to this system of equations?y=x+8y=10x+3Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Check Equation 1: Check if the point (2,10) satisfies the first equation y=x+8.Substitute x=2 into the first equation to get y.y=2+8y=10Does the y-value from the point (2,10) match this result?Yes, because the y-value from the point is also 10.
Solve Equation 1: Check if the point (2,10) satisfies the second equation y=10x+3.Substitute x=2 into the second equation to get y.y=10(2)+3y=20+3y=23Does the y-value from the point (2,10) match this result?No, because the y-value from the point is y=10x+30, not y=10x+31.
