Question

DOES THE GRAPH OF THE STRAIGHT LINE WITH SLOPE OF 4 AND Y-INTERCEPT OF -3 PASS THROUGH THE POINT (-2, 9)

Answer 1

Equation of the given line will be :

• y = 4x - 3

now, let's plug the value of x as the x - coordinate of the above point (-2 , 9) to check whether it lies on the line or not.

• $y = 4( - 2) - 3$

• $y = - 8 - 3$

• $y = - 11$

now, since value of isn't equal to the y - coordinate of the given point, so the point doesn't lies on the line.

Answer 2

Answer:

Equation of the given line will be :

y = 4x - 3

now, let's plug the value of x as the x - coordinate of the above point (-2 , 9) to check whether it lies on the line or not.

y = 4( - 2) - 3y=4(−2)−3

y = - 8 - 3y=−8−3

y = - 11y=−11

now, since value of isn't equal to the y - coordinate of the given point, so the point doesn't lies on the line.
