To determine if a point is a solution to the equation y=5x-3, we substitute the x and y values of the point into the equation and see if the equation holds true.
For point (−2,−13):
y = 5x - 3
-13 = 5(-2) - 3
-13 = -10 - 3
-13 = -13
The equation holds true for point (−2,−13).
For point (1,−2):
y = 5x - 3
-2 = 5(1) - 3
-2 = 5 - 3
-2 = 2
The equation does not hold true for point (1,−2).
For point (−3,12):
y = 5x - 3
12 = 5(-3) - 3
12 = -15 - 3
12 = -18
The equation does not hold true for point (−3,12).
For point (4, 23):
y = 5x - 3
23 = 5(4) - 3
23 = 20 - 3
23 = 17
The equation does not hold true for point (4, 23).
The only point that is a solution to the equation y=5x-3 is (−2,−13).
Which of the following is a solution to the equation y=5x−3
(−2,−13)
(1,−2)
(−3,12)
(4, 23)
