Algebra.Com's Answer #293460 by duckness73(47)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The notation (6,5) is shorthand for x = 6, y = 5. If (6,5) is a solution to the equation y = 2x, then substituting 6 for x and 5 for y should give a true result. Let's see ...\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y = 2x \n" ); document.write( "5 = 2 * 6 \n" ); document.write( "5 = 12 This clearly is a false statement, so (6,5) is NOT a solution for the equation y = 2x. \n" ); document.write( " |
