Question

Determine if the ordered pair (–4, 3) is a solution of 4x-y=-13

Answer 1

To determine if the ordered pair (–4, 3) is a solution of 4x-y=-13, we substitute -4 for x and 3 for y in the equation and check if it is true.

4x - y = -13

4(-4) - 3 = -13

-16 - 3 = -13

-19 = -13

This is not true, so the ordered pair (-4, 3) is not a solution of the equation 4x - y = -13.
