Operational Data Integrity: Defining a System Solution

You are training a new data analyst to verify system constraints for a resource allocation model. The model is represented by the following system of equations:

{xy=12xy=5\begin{cases} x - y = -1 \\ 2x - y = -5 \end{cases}

In your own words, define the fundamental requirement for an ordered pair to be considered a 'solution' to this specific system. Describe the exact steps a technician must take to verify if a point like (4,3)(-4, -3) meets this requirement, and explain why satisfying only one of the two equations is insufficient for the point to be classified as a solution for the entire system.
