Question

An equation and two ordered pairs are given. Show that each pair is a solution to the equation. Then use the graph of the two points to determine another solution.
y=1/2x+3
is (2,4) a solution?
4=1/2(2)+3
yes it is
is (-8,-1) a solution?
-8=1/2(-1)+3
yes it is
use the points given above and the graphing tool to graph the equation

Answer 1

If we were to input \(\Large{(x,y)}\) into the slope-intercept formula and find that with \(\Large{x}\) inputted that it does equal up to \(\Large{y}\) then it does check out so lets try that....

\(\Huge{4=\frac{1}{2}2+3}\)

Does this check out?

Answer 2

Oooo i didnt see you replied with answers then yes you are correct ^^

Answer 3

that's ok but the problem is I replied with those answers now I cant seem to get graphing down

Answer 4

what do you mean? the problem states graping I'm stuck with that

Answer 5

Can you send me a pic of the options?

Answer 6

@563blackghost as u can see there are no options its asking me to graph

Answer 7

On the bottom it says "Click the graph, choose a tool in the palette and follow the instruction to create your graph".

Answer 8

yea it does, how do I graph it and which pair do I graph

Answer 9

(2,4) and (-8,-1).

And I not really clear on how to graph the points since I am not familiar with your graphing tool.

Answer 10

I thought I was supposed to graph one cause when I do the check answer part it shows one that's right

Answer 11

@mathmale

Answer 12

@rebeccaxhawaii @SerenityJustice74 anyone? I odnt know how to graph and which ordered pair. I only hav 2 more chances before the problem changes to another one
