Q. y=−4x+63x+4y=−2Is (2,2) a solution of the system?Choose 1 answer:(A) Yes(B) No
Substituting point into first equation: First, we will substitute the point (2,2) into the first equation and check if it holds true. The first equation is y=−4x+6. If we substitute x=2 and y=2, we get 2=−4⋅2+6.
Checking if equation holds true: After performing the calculation, we find that 2=−8+6, which simplifies to 2=−2. This is not true. Therefore, the point (2,2) does not satisfy the first equation.
Conclusion: Point does not satisfy first equation: Since the point (2,2) does not satisfy the first equation, there is no need to check the second equation. The point (2,2) cannot be a solution to the system of equations if it does not satisfy both equations.
