Question

Does the point ( 1, 6 ) satisfy the equation

`7x ^(2) - 6x + 5`


​

Answer 1

Assuming that I can have this quadratic equation equals y, here is what you might be looking for.

`7x^(2) -6x+5=y`

insert the values of the point

`7(1)^(2) -6(1)+5=6`

`7^(2) -6+5=6`

`49-6+5=6`

`43+5=6`

`48\\eq 6`

Assuming that I can use y, Then no, this point would not satisfy this parabola.

Hope this helps.
