Answer:

(-2, 3) is one of many solutions to the system

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's actually solve the system so that we can compare the result with the given pair (-2, 3):

Multiplying the second equation by -2 results in:

2x + 4y = 8

-2x - 4y  = -8

We see that these equations are identical.  Thus, there are infinitely many solutions.  

1. is true:  (-2, 3) is one of many solutions to the system

The other three possible answers are incorrect.
