Problem

For each ordered pair, determine whether it is a solution to the system of equations. \[ \left\{\begin{array}{c} 2 x-3 y=-8 \\ y=7 x+9 \end{array}\right. \]

Solution

Step 1 :Let's start by substituting the second equation into the first. This gives us: \(2x - 3(7x + 9) = -8\).

Step 2 :Simplify the equation to get: \(-19x - 27 = -8\).

Step 3 :Solving for x, we get: \(x = -1\).

Step 4 :Substitute \(x = -1\) into the second equation: \(y = 7(-1) + 9\).

Step 5 :Solving for y, we get: \(y = 2\).

Step 6 :So, the solution to the system of equations is \(\boxed{(-1, 2)}\).
