which of the following coordinates is a solution to the linear equation?
y=-3x+7

(2,-1)

(1,10)

(3,-2)

(-5,-8)

If anybody answer this could you put in a formula so I can follow it. Thank you

Respuesta :

Right this is pretty simple all you do is sub the points to the equation given.
So first try the first point (2,-1) in y=-3x+7
==> -1=-3(2)+7
==>-1=1 this is not equal therefore not the right points

Then try (1,10)
==>10=-3(1)+7
==>10=4 this is incorrect therefore not the right points

Next try (3,-2)
==>-2=-3(3)+7
==>-2=-2 this is equal therefore this is the coordinates to the linear equation.

Finally try the last points to make sure you are correct.
==> -8=-3(-5)+7
==>-8=22 this is incorrect also.

Therefore the only coordinates that satisfies the equation is (3,-2)
