Capitolo 6, Problema 2

Determine whether the given ordered pair is a solution of the system. (−3,5)(- 3, 5)
{9x+7y=88x−9y=−69\(\begin{cases}\) 9x + 7y = 8 \\ 8x - 9y = -69 \(\end{cases}\)

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the ordered pair given: \((-3, 5)\), where \(x = -3\) and \(y = 5\).
Substitute \(x = -3\) and \(y = 5\) into the first equation \(9x + 7y = 8\) to check if the equation holds true.
Calculate the left side of the first equation: \(9(-3) + 7(5)\) and compare it to the right side, which is \(8\).
Substitute \(x = -3\) and \(y = 5\) into the second equation \(8x - 9y = -69\) to check if this equation is also satisfied.
Calculate the left side of the second equation: \(8(-3) - 9(5)\) and compare it to the right side, which is \(-69\). If both equations are true, then the ordered pair is a solution to the system.

Ordered Pair as a Solution

An ordered pair (x, y) is a solution to a system if substituting x and y into each equation makes both equations true. This involves replacing variables with the given values and verifying the equality holds for each equation.
