Evelyn is incorrect. The point (-3,3) does not satisfy both equations simultaneously.
For Line A:
2(-3) + 5(3) = 9
-6 + 15 = 9
9 = 9
This equation is satisfied by the point (-2,2) for Line A.
For Line B:
-(-3) + 3(3) = 9
3 + 9 = 9
12 = 9
This equation is not satisfied by the point (-3,3) for Line B.
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is not (-3,3).
Evelyn graphed the following system and determined the solution to the system is (-3,3).
Line A: 2x + 5y = 9
Line B: -x + 3y = 9
Is Evelyn correct? Explain.
