Question

is (1,5) a solution to the equation y=x-2

Answer 1

To check if it is is true, we simply plug the values in and see if it works.

So, in y=x-2, we put in x=1 and y=5

The equation becomes (5) = (1) - 2
Or, 5 = -1
Well this isn't correct, so the point is not a solution

Answer 2

thank you

Answer 3

solve the equation for x
3x = -4y
a) x = -12
b) x = -4y/3
c) x = -12/y
d) x = -3/4y
