Answer:

OPTION D: NEITHER

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is: 7x - 2y = - 5

To find a solution to this, we substitute the options and compare LHS and RHS.

OPTION A: (1, 5)

LHS = 7(1) - 2(5) = 7 - 10 = -3

RHS = - 5

LHS $ \ne $ RHS.

So, this option is eliminated.

OPTION B: (-1, 1)

LHS = 7(-1) - 2(1) = -7 - 2 = - 9

RHS = - 5

Again, LHS $ \ne $ RHS.

So, this Option is eliminated as well.

OPTION C: It says both A and B. Clearly, this is eliminated as well.

Therefore, the answer is: OPTION D: NEITHER.

NOTE: This is a two variable equation. So, we need a minimum of two equations to determine the solution. Since, only one equation is given here, we use the help of options.

Simplify the expression
bearhunter [10]
First we want to simplify the denominator
\frac{1}{4} - \frac{5}{2}

to subtract, we convert 5/2 to have a denominator of 4
\frac{1}{4} - \frac{10}{4}
- \frac{9}{4}

now we can put this back into the original problem
\frac{4}{ - \frac{9}{4} }
this equation can also be read as
4 \div - \frac{9}{4}

when dividing, we flip the right side and switch to multiplication
\frac{4}{1} \times - \frac{4}{9} = - \frac{16}{9}

answer = - \frac{16}{9}
