Question 73726: I need help with this:
Determine which of the ordered pairs are solutions for the given equation.
3x+4y=12 (-4, 0) (0, 3) These are the ordered pairs I came up with. Is this correct or is there more?

There are an infinite number of solutions. If I solve for y I get
y=%28-3%2F4%29x%2B3
If I plug in x=4 I get y=0, if I plug in x=8 I get y=-3 so on and so forth. It continues on to infinity
graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C%28-3%2F4%29x%2B3%29
This line continues on forever, so there are infinite solutions.
