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( "
\n" );
