Does the line 4y + 3x = -8 pass through the point (3, 2)
1 answer:
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the values of the variables in the equation and do the arithmetic to see if it is true.
x=3, y=2
4y +3x = 4(2) +3(3) = 8 + 9 = 17 . . . . not equal to -8
The point is not on the line.
___
If you graph the equation of the line, you realize it doesn't even go through the first quadrant, so the point cannot possibly be on the line.
