Question

Is x=-4 and y=3 a solution of the equation 2x -5y=-23

Answer 1

Yes

Explanation:

First you pull them into the equation

2(-4)-5(3)=-23

Distribute

-8-15=-23

-23=-23

Answer 2

Is x=-4 and y=3 a solution of the equation 2x -5y=-23

2x -5y=-23
2(-4) - 5(3) =-23
-8 - 15 = -23
-23 = -23

Therefore, x = 4 and y = 3 is a solution to 2x -5y=-23.

Hope that helps!
