• No

How do you check to see if an Ordered Pair is a solution to a System of Linear Equations?

• Plug in the x-value and y-value to see if each equation works

• Take a random guess

• Solve each equation for x and then use Inverse Operations

• Multiply the Slope of each line by the Constant of Proportionality

• Ordered Pair

• Right Answer

• Variable

• Number
