Question

which ordered pair is a solution of the equation 7x−5=4y−6?PLEASE HURRY THIS IS DUE NOW A. only (2,4)B. only (3,6)C. both A and BD. neither A or B

Answer 1

To answer this question, we can take the coordinates (2, 4), and (3, 6) and substitute each of them in the given equation. Then, we can determine which of these ordered pairs is a solution of the equation 7x - 5 = 4y - 6. Then, we have:

1. Case: Ordered pair (2, 4):

`7\cdot(2)-5=4\cdot(4)-6\Rightarrow14-5=16-6\Rightarrow9\\e10`

This ordered pair is NOT a solution.

2. Case: Ordered pair (3, 6):

`7\cdot(3)-5=4\cdot(6)-6\Rightarrow21-5=24-6\Rightarrow16\\e18`

This ordered pair is NOT a solution.

Therefore, neither the ordered pair (2, 4) nor (3, 6) are solutions to the given equation (Option D).
