Answer:
(a) See attachment 1
All points lie on the same line
(b) See attachment 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]2x + y = 10[/tex]
Solving (a): Plot 5 points that make the equation, true
First, we calculate the points
Make y the subject
[tex]y = 10 - 2x[/tex]
[tex]x = 0 \to y = 10 - 2* 0 = 10[/tex]
[tex]x = 1 \to y = 10 - 2* 1 = 8[/tex]
[tex]x = 2 \to y = 10 - 2* 2 = 6[/tex]
[tex]x = 3 \to y = 10 - 2* 3 = 4[/tex]
[tex]x = 4 \to y = 10 - 2* 4 = 2[/tex]
So, we will plot the following points
[tex](0,10)\ (1,8)\ (2,6)\ (3,4)\ (4,2)[/tex]
See attachment 1
Notice that all points lie on the same line
Solving (b):
Point (5,7) does not make the equation true, and that is why it lies outside the line
