Question

9 – 5y = 4x ordered pair: (–6, 3)

1. The ordered pair IS a solution to the equation

2. The ordered pair IS NOT a solution to the equation

Answer 1

The ordered pair IS NOT a solution to the equation

Explanation:

To see if it is or is not a solution, plug in the point into the equation:

9 - 5y = 4x

9 - 5(3) = 4(-6)

Simplify:

9 - 15 = -24

-6 = -24

-6
`\\eq` -24

So, since this is false, the ordered pair is NOT a solution to the equation

Answer 2

the answer is number 2
