Question

True or False?

The equation y = 2x + 1 goes through the point (4, 3).

Select the appropriate response:
A) True
B) False

Answer 1

False

Explanation:

y = 2x + 1

Substitute the point (4,3) into the equation and see if it is true

3 = 2(4) +1

3 =8+1

3 =9

This is false, so the point is not a solution
