Find such a coefficient a for the linear equation ax –y=4, so that the graph of the equation would pass through the point M (3, 5). Build the graph of this equation.

Answer:

RSM gang, listen up! In the portal you will need to select 2 points. THOSE POINTS ARE: (0, -4) AND (1, -1)

Explanation:

Based on the previous answer, a=3

So, we multiply 3*x and get 3x

The equation then becomes 3x-y=4

Solve that and get the coordinates mentioned above

Ur welcome.

use the point (3,5) as (x,y) to solve for the coefficient "a"

a(3) - (5) = 4

3a - 5 = 4
3a = 4+5
3a = 9
a = 3
