To check if the point (5, 6) is a solution to the linear system of equations given by:
1. \( x - y = -1 \)
2. \( x - 3y = -13 \)
You would substitute \( x = 5 \) and \( y = 6 \) into both equations to verify if they hold true.
Therefore, the correct choice is:
**Substitute 5 in for x and 6 in for y in both of the equations to see if both equations are true.**
This ensures that the point (5, 6) satisfies both equations in the system. If it does, then (5, 6) is indeed a solution.
