Determine whether the given ordered pair is a solution of the given equation.
x^2 + y^2 - 8x + 6y = -21; (4,-1)
a. no
b. yes Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The first number in your ordered pair is the -coordinate of the point and the second number is the -coordinate. Substitute the value of the -coordinate for in your equation and Substitute the value of the -coordinate for :
Do the arithmetic. If the result is a true statement, then your answer is yes, the given point is on the graph. Otherwise the answer is no.
