Verify if (Five-thirds, negative two-thirds) is a solution to the system of equations.

y = one-half x minus three-halves

y = - x + 1

Is the ordered pair a solution to the system?

A) Yes, because there are infinite solutions to the system of equations.

B) No, because substituting these values into the first equation creates a false statement.

C) Yes, because substituting these values into both equations forms two true statements.

D) No, because substituting these values into the second equation forms a false statement.
