Answer:

no

Given linear equation is y=3x

x is independent and y is dependent variable.

Let's assign some values to x and find the corresponding values of y

x 1 2 −1 −2

y 3 6 −3 −6

So, the ordered pair of values of (x,y) are (1,3),(2,6),(−1,−3),(−2,−6)

Let's plot these points on a graph and then we get the above graph image

We get the slope as m=3 and it passes through (0,0).

Answer:

no

Explanation:

y = 3x

Replace x with 4. replace y with 3.

3 = 3 × 4

3 = 12

Since 3 = 12 is a false statement, the answer is "no."

Answer: no
