need help bad can you help me with this problem (-2/3,1) is a solution to -9x-2y=8

2 answers

- 9 x - 2 y = 8

x = - 2 / 3

y = 1

- 9 * ( - 2 / 3 ) - 2 * 1 =

18 / 3 - 2 =

6 - 2 =

4

No isn't.
But if:

x = - 2 / 3

y = - 1

Then :

- 9 * ( - 2 / 3 ) - 2 * ( - 1 ) =

18 / 3 + 2 =

6 + 2 =

8

(- 2/ 3 , -1 ) is a solution to

-9x-2y=8
