Question

Verify if (Five-thirds, negative two-thirds) is a solution to the system of equations.

y = one-half x minus three-halves

y = –x + 1

Is the ordered pair a solution to the system?
Yes, because there are infinite solutions to the system of equations.
No, because substituting these values into the first equation creates a false statement.
Yes, because substituting these values into both equations forms two true statements.
No, because substituting these values into the second equation forms a false statement.

Answer 1

Hello @NatalieAfton !

In this problem, we want to try plugging in:
\(x = \large \frac{5}{3}\) and \(y=-\large\frac{2}{3}\)

into
\(y = 0.5 x - \large \frac{3}{2}\)
