Question

Which of the following is a solution to the equation y=-1/4x +8 O (10,8) 0 (48) O (49) O (-8.-10)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The last one -- D -- is the closest correct answer. None of them, however, is right.

y = -1/4 x + 8                      Let x = - 8

y = -1/4 * - 8   +  8              The standard rule is starting from the left, do the multiplication first then do the addition

- 1/4 * - 8 will first of all give you a positive result. When 2 minuses are multiplied they give a positive answer.

-1/4 * - 8 = 1/4 * 8

1/4 * 8 = 2

y = 2 + 8

y = 10

So the ordered pair (-8 , 10) is the answer.
