Answer 1

To check if the point (5, 6) is a solution to a system of linear equations, you should:

**Substitute 5 in for x and 6 in for y in both of the equations to see if both equations are true.**

This option ensures that you verify if the point satisfies both equations in the system, meaning it is a solution to the entire system.
