Answer:

no, no, yes, yes

Explanation:

You want to know which of the ordered pairs are solutions to the given system of equations: 6x -3y = 9, y = 2x -3.

Graph

The attached graph shows that the two equations describe the same line. The given points are plotted on the same graph. The ones on the line are solutions.

(4, -5) . . . not a solution

(-1, 8) . . . not a solution

(7, 11) is a solution

(0, -3) is a solution

For each ordered pair, determine whether it is a solution to the system of equations-example-1
