Question

Determine whether each ordered pair is a solution of the given linear equation? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1,2) is the only solution to the given linear equation

Step-by-step explanation:

To see whether an ordered pair is a solution to an equation, the easiest thing to do would be to plug the pair into the equation and see if it equals the right hand side.

(1,2):

$4*x+7*y=18\\4*(1)+7*(2)=18\\\therefore (1,2) \text{ is a solution}$

(8,0):

$4*(8)+7*(0)=32\\\therefore (8,0) \text{ is not a solution}$

(0, -2):

$4*(0)+7*(-2)=-14\\\therefore (0,-2) \text{ is not a solution}$
