Question

Match each equation with the ordered pair that is a solution.

Match Term Definition
y equals x plus four A) six comma negative three
y equals x minus nine B) three comma five
y equals two x minus one C) negative two comma two
y equals four x plus three D) negative one comma negative one

Answer 1

y = x + 4
y = x - 9
y = 2x + 1
y = 4x + 3

A. (6,-3)
B. (3,5)
C. (-2,2)
D. (-1,-1)

To match test each one of the points with each equation. Any test that results in a true condition is a match.

Answer 2

For example, test the point \((\color\green{6},\color\red{3})\) with the equation \(\color\red{y}= \color\green{x} + 4\) ....

\(\color\red{3} = \color\green{6} + 4\)
\(3 = 10\)

False

Answer 3

So obviously the point (6,3) is not in y = x + 4. Test the other points to find out which one matches.

Answer 4

y = x + 4
Answer is C..

Answer 5

Test y = x + 4 at point (-2,2)

2 = -2 + 4
2 = 4 - 2
2 = 2

True

Answer 6

Okay, now follow that same testing process for other points and equations until you've matched them all correctly :)

Answer 7

okay, Thank you.
