Given the equation of the line:


y=(4)/(3)x+5

And given the points ( 6 , 13 ) , ( 21 , 33 ) and ( 99 , 137 )

We need to check if the line passes through the points or not

So, substitute with the x - coordinates with each point and find y

so,

for the point ( 6 , 13 )

when x = 6


y=(4)/(3)\cdot6+5=13

The point is true

For the point ( 21 , 33 )

when x = 21


y=(4)/(3)\cdot21+5=4\cdot7+5=28+5=33

The point is true

For the point ( 99 , 137 )

When x = 99


y=(4)/(3)\cdot99+5=4\cdot33+5=132+5=137

The point is true

So, the answer is True
