<u>Answer:</u>
The answer would be D because both ordered pair that was substituted in the equation didn't equal to each other.
<u>Explanation:</u>
All you do is substitute the x and y numbers. (x,y)
<u>A:</u>
Substitute the x and y number
7(2) - 5 = 4(4) - 6
Multiply the number in the parentheses by the outside number on both sides.
14 - 5 = 16 - 6
Subtract both sides to get your solution.
9 = 10
Doesn't equal so that means it's not the solution.
<u>B:</u>
Substitute
7(3) - 5 = 4(6) - 6
Multiply the number in the parentheses by the outside number on both sides.
21 - 5 = 24 - 6
Subtract both sides to get your solution.
16 = 18
It also doesn't equal so that means that it's not the solution either.
<u>C:</u>
Both ordered pair didn't equal to each other so this is not the answer.
Hope this helps!
