Answer: No, it is not a solution

==========================================================

Explanation:

The point (3,-4) means that x = 3 and y = -4 pair up together

Let's plug these x,y values into each equation

Starting with the first equation, we get,

y = 4x-16

-4 = 4(3)-16 ... x replaced with 3; y replaced with -4

-4 = 12-16

-4 = -4 .... this is a true statement

Repeat for the second equation

y = 2x-6

-4 = 2(3)-6

-4 = 6-6

-4 = 0 ... this is false

Since we get a false statement, this means (3,-4) is not on the line y = 2x-6, which means that overall (3,-4) is not a solution to the system of equations. The point (3,-4) must make both equations true for it to be a solution.

Write the equation of a line that passes through the points (4,6) and (−8,3)
kari74 [83]

Answer:

y= 1/4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+c

to calculate gradient: change in y/change in x

-3/-12 = 0.25

y = 1/4x+c

4 * 1/4 = 1

6-1 = 5

c= 5

Totally:
y= 1/4x+5
