The point (0,-2) is a solution to which system of equations?

Question

(2 points)
-x+y=2
-x+2y=16

-4x+y=6
-5x-y=21

-5x=y-3
-3x-8y=24

-5x+y=-2
-3x+6y=-12

Answer 1

The correct system of equations that the point (0,-2) is a solution to is:

-5x=y-3
-3x-8y=24

Substitute x=0 and y=-2 into the first equation:
-5(0) = -2 - 3
0 = -5

This is false. Therefore, the point (0,-2) is not a solution to the first system of equations.
