The line y=−13x+4 passes through which of the following points?

Select one or more:
A. (1, -4)
B. (6, 4)
C. (3, 3)
D. (0, -1)

Option C

[tex]\text{The line } y=\frac{-1}{3}x+4 \text { passes through } (3, 3)[/tex]

Solution:

Given that line is:

[tex]y = \frac{-1}{3}x + 4[/tex]

Let us check the options one by one

Option A

(1, -4)

Substitute x = 1 and y = -4

[tex]-4 = -\frac{1}{3} \times 1 + 4\\\\-4 = \frac{-1+12}{3}\\\\-12 = -1 + 12\\\\-12\neq 11[/tex]

Thus the line does not passes through (1, -4)

Option B

(6, 4)

Substitute x = 6 and y = 4

[tex]4= \frac{-1}{3} \times 6+4\\\\-4 = -2 + 4\\\\-4\neq 2[/tex]

Thus the line does not passes through (6, 4)

Option C

(3, 3)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 3

[tex]3 = \frac{-1}{3} \times 3 + 4\\\\3 = -1 + 4\\\\3 = 3[/tex]

Thus the line does not passes through (3, 3)

Option D

(0, -1)

Substitute x = 0 and y = -1

[tex]-1 = \frac{-1}{3} \times 0 + 4\\\\-1\neq 4[/tex]

Thus the line does not pass through this point
