True/False

A production supervisor is testing whether the resource allocation (4,−1,−5)(4, -1, -5) satisfies a system of three budget equations. After substituting the values into the first equation, 3x+y+z=2{} 3x + y + z = 2, the supervisor finds that the left side evaluates to 6. True or False: Because the result 6 does not match the target value of 2, the supervisor can immediately conclude that (4,−1,−5)(4, -1, -5) is not a solution to the system.
