You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The point (46,0) has x=46 and y=0.
\n" ); document.write( "It indeed lies on the line $\"2x%2B10y=92\"$
\n" ); document.write( "because for those values of x and y
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2B10y=2%2A42%2B10%2A0=92%2B0=92\"$
\n" ); document.write( "However, when we substitute in the other 2 equations, those values of x and y satisfy neither
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2xy%2B10y=2%2A46%2A0%2B10%2A0=0%2B0=0\"$ is far from 92, and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-6x+-+2y+=-6%2A46-2%2A0=-6%2A46-0=-6%2A46\"$ is far from $\"-6%2A4=-24\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
