Question

Is (1, 0) a solution to the equation y = 3x?

Explain why

Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when you take y = 0, you get x =0, not 1.

y =3x

0 = 3x

x = 0

(0, 0) ; (1, 3) (2, 6) . . . are the solutions

Answer 2

Answer: No, it's not a solution

========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (1,0) means x = 1 and y = 0 pair up together.

Replace each variable with those values to get

y = 3x

0 = 3(1)

0 = 3

We get a false statement, so that's why (1,0) is not a solution.

----------

If we plugged in x = 1, then we should get this y value

y = 3x

y = 3*1

y = 3

Meaning (1,3) is a solution. This point is on the line y = 3x.
