Answer:

A. [tex]3x + 13y = 14[/tex] and [tex]6x + 11y = -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Determine which system of equation satisfy (-4,2)

To do this, we simply substitute -4 for x and 2 for y in the given functions.

A.

[tex]3x + 13y = 14[/tex] and [tex]6x + 11y = -2[/tex]

[tex]3x + 13y = 14[/tex]

[tex]3(-4) + 13(2) = 14[/tex]

[tex]-12 + 26 = 14[/tex]

[tex]14 = 14[/tex]

[tex]6x + 11y = -2[/tex]

[tex]6(-4) + 11(2) = -2[/tex]

[tex]-24 + 22 = -2[/tex]

[tex]-2 = -2[/tex]

The above shows that the given linear combination has a solution of (-4,2).

Hence, this option answers the question and there is no need to check other options
