Consider the system of linear equations 2x + 3y = 8 and 3x + y = –2. Which statement is correct?

Answer
A
The point (1, 2) is not a solution to the system of equations because it satisfies neither equation.
B
The point (1, 2) is not a solution to the system of equations because it does not satisfy the equation 3x + y = –2.
C
The point (1, 2) is a solution to the system of equations because it satisfies the equation 2x + 3y = 8.
D
The point (1, 2) is a solution to the system of equations because it satisfies both equations.
