Q. Is (8,2) a solution to this system of equations?x+y=106x+4y=19Choices:(A) yes(B) no
Check First Equation: We need to check if the point (8,2) satisfies the first equation: x+y=10. Substitute x=8 and y=2 into the equation: 8+2=1010=10 The point (8,2) satisfies the first equation.
Check Second Equation: Now, we need to check if the point (8,2) satisfies the second equation: 6x+4y=19. Substitute x=8 and y=2 into the equation: 6(8)+4(2)=1948+8=1956=19 The point (8,2) does not satisfy the second equation.
