Question

A system of equations is shown.

10x + 6y= -12
4x + 2y= -8

which statement bout the ordered pair (-6, 8) is true

a. it is not a solution to either equation
b. it is the only solution to the system
c. it is a solution to the first but not the second
d. it is one of many solutions

why is the option you choose the right answer

Answer 1

B because tell you what you need to know ?

Answer 2

It is the only solution because 10(-6) + 6(8) = -12
-60 + 48 = -12
-12 = -12 for the first.
4(-6) + 2(8) = -8
-24 + 16 = -8
-8 = -8 for the second.
