Answer

The given orderd pair (-1, 6) isn't a solution of the line y = (x/4) + 5.

Step-by-step explanation

We are asked to check if the ordered pair (-1, 6) is a solution of the linear equation y = (x/4) + 5.

If the orderd pair is a solution, then it would satisfy the given equation of the line when we substitute for x and y.

(-1, 6) means that x = -1 and y = 6

y = (x/4) + 5

6 = (-1/4) + 5

6 = -0.25 + 5

6 ≠ 4.75

Hence, we can conclude that the given orderd pair (-1, 6) isn't a solution of the line y = (x/4) + 5.

Hope this Helps!!!
