Question

Which statement about the ordered pairs (-9, 3) and (2, - 4) is true for the equation

Answer 1

Answer:

(2, - 4) is a solution to the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the x and y coordinates of the points into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are a solution.

(- 9, 3 )

6(- 9) - $\frac{3}{2}$

= - 54 - 1.5 = - 55.5 ≠ 14 ← not a solution

(2, - 4)

6(2) - $\frac{-4}{2}$

= 12 + 2 = 14 ← This is a solution

Thus (2, - 4) is a solution to the equation
