Point (a,a) lies on the graph of the equation 3y = 2x -4 find the value of a

1 answer:

5 0

Substituting (x, y) with (a, a), since we have:

3a=2a-4, which means that 3a-2a=-4, that is a=-4.

So, the point is (-4, -4).

Remark: a point which lies in the graph of an equation is a solution of that equation. So x=a, y=a satisfies the equation <span> 3y = 2x -4, which makes our substitution legitimate.

Answer: </span>(-4, -4).
