    3 (5) + y=12

    15+y=12

    -15 - 15

    y=-3

    Answer is no

    3x + y = 12

    2x + 3y = 1

    Take the top equation and multiply it by - 3

    -9x - 3y = - 36

    2x + 3y = 1

    Then, add the equations (Combine like terms

    -7x = - 35

    Take both sides divided by - 7

    x = 5

    The ordered pair is (5, 3) and x is infact 5, so continue

    Then, plug in x for one of the other equations

    3x + y = 12

    3 (5) + y = 12

    15 + y = 12

    Subtract 15 from both sides

    y = - 3

    Your ordered pair is (5, 3) but the y is not - 3

    No, the ordered pair is not a solution of the system of linear equations
