Answer: Choice D) ordered pair is not a solution to the second equation
We can see this by replacing x and y with 1 and -4 respectively
2x + y = 4
2*1 + y = 4 .... replace x with 1
2*1 + (-4) = 4 ... replace y with -4
2 - 4 = 4
-2 = 4 .... this equation is false because -2 and 4 are different values
The last equation being false means that the original equation 2x+y = 4 is also false when (x,y) = (1,-4). Therefore, this ordered pair is not a solution to the second equation 2x+y = 4
A solution to the system must make BOTH equations true simultaneously, not just one.
