Question

I just want to confirm my answer to the question below. The point (1,2) is a solution to the following system ofequations. 3x-2y=-7 x+y=3 True or False. I keep coming out with a different point, or solution for thisproblem, so I think it's false. Can anyone help me? Thanks. I just want to confirm my answer to the question below.

Explanation / Answer

I just want to confirm my answer to the question below. The point (1,2) is a solution to the following system ofequations. 3x-2y=-7 x+y=3 True or False. I keep coming out with a different point, or solution for thisproblem, so I think it's false. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

substitute 1 for x, 2 for y in each equation

3x-2y=-7
3(1)-2(2)=-7
3-4=-7    not correct so (1,2) not a solution

x+y=3
1+2=3 correct so (1,2) is a solution

but it is not a solution for the system of equations
you are correct
