Question

Find a pair of values that make the linear equation 14x−y=−14 a true statement by filling in the boxes with a valid value of x and y.

Answer 1

To find a pair of values that make the linear equation 14x - y = -14 a true statement, we can choose any value for x and calculate the corresponding value of y.

Let's choose x = 2:

14(2) - y = -14

28 - y = -14

Now, we can solve for y:

-y = -14 - 28

-y = -42

Dividing both sides by -1 (to isolate y):

y = 42

Therefore, the pair of values (x, y) that make the equation true is (2, 42).
