Question

What is the solution to the system of equations?

3 x + 10 y = negative 47. 5 x minus 7 y = 40.
(1, –5)
(1, 5)
(–1, –5)
(–1, 5)

Answer 1

Answer:

  (1, –5)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is relatively easy to try the offered solutions to see what works.

(1, -5)

  3(1) +10(-5) = -47 . . . true

  5(1) -7(-5) = 40 . . . true

(1, -5) is the solution

_____

As a check, you can try some of the other choices:

(1, 5)

  3(1) +10(5) ≠ -47

(-1, -5)

  3(-1) +10(-5) ≠ -47

(-1, 5)

  3(-1) +10(5) ≠ -47

None of the other choices works in the first equation, so they're not the solution.
