To determine a solution for the equation \(1.5x - 2y = 8\), we can rearrange the equation to solve for \(y\) in terms of \(x\):
Starting with:
\[
1.5x - 2y = 8
\]
we can isolate \(y\):
\[
-2y = 8 - 1.5x
\]
\[
2y = 1.5x - 8
\]
\[
y = \frac{1.5x - 8}{2}
\]
Now that we have \(y\) in terms of \(x\), we can substitute different values for \(x\) to find corresponding values of \(y\) to determine potential solutions.
Alternatively, you can also provide a specific point (x, y) from a list, and we can check if that point satisfies the equation by plugging it into the original equation. If you have specific potential solutions, please list them so we can evaluate them.
