Consider the system of linear equations 2 x plus 3 y is equal to 8 and 3 x plus y is equal to negative 2 Which statement is correct?
Answer
A
The point open paren 1 comma 2 close paren is a solution to the system of equations because it satisfies the equation 2 x plus 3 y is equal to 8 .
B
The point open paren 1 comma 2 close paren is not a solution to the system of equations because it satisfies neither equation.
C
The point open paren 1 comma 2 close paren is a solution to the system of equations because it satisfies both equations.
D
The point open paren 1 comma 2 close paren is not a solution to the system of equations because it does not satisfy the equation 3 x plus y is equal to negative 2 .
