Change the subtraction to add 2x plus -4x
5=-4x (+2x)-7

5=-2x-7

since the x's are now on one side and we can't do anything with 5, on the other side you change -7 to add to the other side.

5 (+7)= -2x

12= -2x

divide -2 by 12.

-6 = x

Is the point (4,11) a solution to the following system of equations? How do you know?

rjkz [21]

No because when you plug in the ordered pair to either equation it doesn’t work. Y=2x+14 would go to 11=2(4)+14 and you would get 11=22 which is wrong. Again with y=3x-5 would be 11=3(4)-5; 11=7 which is wrong again.
