Question

Determine the point that lies on the equation y = -5x - 3.

Answer 1

Answer:

(4, -23)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

• The equation, y = -5x -3

We are needed to determine the point that lies on the equation;

• We need to know that for a point to be lying on the equation it must satisfy the equation.
• This means when we use the value of x in the equation we should get the exact value of y of the given point;

• Therefore, in this case;

Point (4, -23)

Replacing x = 4 in the equation;

y = -5(4) - 3

 = -23

Therefore, the point lies on the equation as the point satisfies the equation

Thus, the required point is (4, -23)
