Question

1. determine whether the following points are on the line represented by the given equation. show your work by substituting the points into the equation. • a) $y = 2x + 3$; point: $(1, 5)$ • b) $y = -4x + 6$; point: $(2, 0)$

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute (1,5) into y=2x+3

Left side: $y=5$; Right side: $2(1)+3=5$. $5=5$

Step2: Substitute (2,0) into y=-4x+6

Left side: $y=0$; Right side: $-4(2)+6=0$. $0=0$

Answer:

a) Yes; b) Yes
