The solution of an equation is the true value of the equation.

The true statement is (a) Dr. Ellison is right

The equation is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{y =17x + 1}[/tex]

The solution is given as: (1,18)

Substitute 1 for x and 18 for y.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{18 =17 \times 1 + 1}[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]\mathbf{18 =17 + 1}[/tex]

Add

[tex]\mathbf{18 =18}[/tex]

The above equation is true.

Hence, the true statement is (a) Dr. Ellison is right
