I'm about 95% sure we just did this question.
OpenStudy (texaschic101):
hi
y = 2x - 5
(1,-3)
-3 = 2(1) - 5
-3 = 2 - 5
-3 = -3 (correct)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So it's (1,-3)?
OpenStudy (texaschic101):
yep...just plug in your values (x,y) and see which one satisfies your equation

anyone?
OpenStudy (texaschic101):
give me a second and I will come up with the answer...hold on
OpenStudy (texaschic101):
4x - y = 5
(-6,-29)
4(-6) - (-29) = 5
-24 + 29 = 5
5 = 5 (correct, so not the right answer)
(-2,-13)
4(-2) - (-13) = 5
-8 + 13 = 5
5 = 5 (not the right answer)
(0,-5)
4(0) - (-5) = 5
5 = 5 (not the right answer)
(9,41)
4(9) - 41 = 5
36 - 41 = 5
-5 = 5 (BINGO...here is your answer)
