Question

How many solutions are there to the equation y = 14x – 9?

Explain your answer.

A.There are no solutions because no value can be used for the variable x for the equation to remain true.

B.There is one solution because only one value can be used for the variable x for the equation to remain true.

C.There are 2 solutions because only 2 values can be used for the variables for the equation to remain true.

D.There are an infinite number of solutions because any value can be used for the variable x and the equation would remain true.

Answer 2

we have here two variables, an x and y .
you can plug in any value for x, and get a different value for y .
if we represent solutions as ordered pairs (x,y) , we have solutions:
( x, 14x - 9 )

Answer 3

so is it c?

Answer 4

you can plug in any number for x, so there seems to be more than 2

Answer 5

(0, 14*0 - 9)
(1, 14*1-9)
(2, 14*2 - 9)
(3, 14*3 - 9)
... etc

Answer 6

ehh i dont know how to do math

Answer 7

do you see that there are many solutions, or ordered pairs that satisfy that equation
y = 14x- 9

Answer 8

can you give me an answer?
