This you can check yourself, can't you?

anonymous · Answer

You are given $x$ and you are given $y$ too, just plug in the equation given, and check whether right hand side equals left hand side or not?

Am I talking to someone here or with myself only?? :)

surryyy · Answer

it would be false right?

anonymous · Answer

Do you have keyboard? @surryyy

anonymous · Answer

If it is false, then how can it be Right?? :P

anonymous · Answer

yep, you are correct..

It does not satisfy the equation.. :)

anonymous · Answer

Good..

surryyy · Answer

k Thnx lol

anonymous · Answer

$(3,0)$, whenever you are given point like this, the first value ie $3$ indicates x-coordinate and second value ie $0$ indicates y-coordinate..

So, you have $x$ and $y$ values with you,    $x=3$ and $y=0$..

anonymous · Answer

Now, your equation is : $y = 2x - 11$

Plug the values in: $0 = 2(3) -11$

$0 = 6 - 11$ but $0 \ne -5$, so LHS is not equal to RHS..

anonymous · Answer

As this solution is dissatisfying the equation, so it is not its solution.. :)
