Determine whether the given ordered pair is a solution to the system of equations.
-(-4, -5) 4x + y = -21
3x + 4y = -32
A)No
B)Yes

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substituting x = -4 and y = -5 into both equations: For the first equation, 4(-4) + (-5) = -16 - 5 = -21, which is true. For the second equation, 3(-4) + 4(-5) = -12 - 20 = -32, which is also true. Therefore, (-4, -5) is a solution to the system of equations.
