Question

Find a solution to this equation.
y=x+2

Answer 1

To find a solution to the equation \( y = x + 2 \), we can choose any value for \( x \) and then calculate the corresponding value for \( y \).

Let's select \( x = 1 \):

\[
y = 1 + 2 = 3
\]

So one solution to the equation is \( (x, y) = (1, 3) \).

You can choose other values for \( x \) as well, for example:

- If \( x = 0 \), then \( y = 0 + 2 = 2 \) → solution: \( (0, 2) \)
- If \( x = -2 \), then \( y = -2 + 2 = 0 \) → solution: \( (-2, 0) \)

There are infinitely many solutions since it's a linear equation!
