Question

Which is a solution to the equation y=3x+1?

A.
(3, 10)

B.
(2, 6)

C.
(1, 5)

D.
(0, 3)

Answer 1

The correct answer is: [A]: "(3, 10)" .
________________________________________________
We are given the equation:
______________________________________
" y = 3x + 1 "
___________________________________
When "x = 3" (in this equation), "y =10".
_____________________________________
Let us plug in "3" for "x" in this equation, and see what "y" equals:
__________________________________________________
y = 3x + 1 ;

y = 3*(3) + 1 ;

y = 9 + 1 = 10
________________________________________________________
So, Answer choice, [A]: (3,10) ; is a solution to the equation, "y = 3x+1" .

The other answer choices are incorrect.
