To find:
Which of the ordered pairs satisfy teach of the system of equations?
Answer to Problem 1MCT
Ordered pair
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
We have been given the system of equations
For the ordered pair
Substitute
We got a false result since,
Hence, the ordered pair
Similarly, we check for the other ordered pair.
For the ordered pair
Substitute
Substitute
We got true results for both the equations.
Hence, the ordered pair
Conclusion:
The ordered pair
