Question

Tell whether the given equation has the ordered pair as a solution.

8. y = x + 6; (0, 6)

9. y = 1 - x; (2, 1)

Tell whether the given number is a solution of each equation

16. 8x + 5 = 29; 3

17. 5b + 1 = 16; -3

Answer 1

8. y=x+6, (0,6)
6=0+6
6=6 Many solutions
9. y=1-x, (2,1)
1=1-2
1≠-2 No solution
16. 8x+5=29, 3
8x=24
x=3 3 is a solution
17. 5b+1=16, -3
5b=15
b=3 -3 is not a solution
