How do you determine if a point is a solution to a system of equations?

Back

Substitute the point's coordinates into each equation; if all equations are satisfied, it is a solution.

Front

What is the graphical representation of a system of equations?

Back

The graphs of the equations, where the intersection points represent the solutions.
