Algebra.Com's Answer #257545 by neatmath(302)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not necessarily! \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It is easy to make a linear equation that will satisfy the first point (2,3) \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For example, one equation that would work is \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you plug in the point (2,3) it will be a true statement, ie \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now use the other point, plugging in (3,2) into the equation. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You will get a false statement, ie \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We could find a line that has (2,3) and (3,2) as solutions, but it looks like in this example you needed to find a way to show that both points will not necessarily be a solution to the same linear equation. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Try to find another linear equation that (2,3) would be a solution for, but (3,2) would not, and then you will have support for your answer. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I hope this helps! \n" ); document.write( " |
