You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(5,1) is the solution to equation 2x-3y= 7. What does this mean?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This means if you substitute your solutions which are (5,1) for (x,y), Then your equation should be true. If it is true then your answer must be 7=7. If your answer is not 7, then (5,1) is not a solution to your equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So let work it out: x=5 & y=1
\n" ); document.write( " 2x-3y=7 Now we replace X with 5 and Y with 1
\n" ); document.write( " 2(5)- 3(1)=7
\n" ); document.write( " 10 - 3 =7
\n" ); document.write( " 7 = 7 That is a truw statement! \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
