Answer:
(0,1) is not the solution to the equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
−3x − 8y = −8 (1)
y = 2 − x (2)
Substitute (2) into (1)
−3x − 8y = −8 (1)
- 3x - 8(2 - x) = -8
- 3x - 16 + 8x = -8
- 3x + 8x = -8 + 16
5x = 8
x = 8/5
Substitute x = 8/5 into (2)
y = 2 − x (2)
= 2 - 8/5
= (10-8) / 5
= 2/5
y = 2/5
Solution to the equation:
(x, y) = (8/5, 2/5)
Therefore,
(0,1) is not the solution to the equation
