Question

Is the point (2,8) a solution of the equation y = 13x + 12? O Yes O No

Answer 1

Answer:

O No

Explanation:

Given equation: y = 13x + 12

To check if (2, 8) is a solution of the given equation.

Substitute x and y value in equation and check if it is true.

$\rightarrow y = 13x+12$

(x, y) = (2, 8)

$\rightarrow 8 = 13(2)+12$

simplify

$\rightarrow 8 = 38$

This following statement is false and hence (2, 8) is not a solution.
