Answer:

O No

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: y = 13x + 12

To check if (2, 8) is a solution of the given equation.

Substitute x and y value in equation and check if it is true.


\rightarrow y = 13x+12

(x, y) = (2, 8)


\rightarrow 8 = 13(2)+12

simplify


\rightarrow 8 = 38

This following statement is false and hence (2, 8) is not a solution.
