Which of the ordered pairs is a solution for the equation 4x - 2y = 8?
(A) (0,4) (B) (-2,0) (C) (-2, -4) highlight%28D%29 (0, -4)
The ordered pairs are in this order: (x,y)
:
For A (0,4):
4(0)-2(4)=8
0-8=8
-8=8 Not true, not a solution.
:
For B (-2,0)
4(-2)-2(0)=8
-8-0=8
-8=8 Not true, not a solution.
:
For C (-2,-4)
4(-2)-2(-4)=8
-8+8=8
0=8 Not true, not a solution.
:
For D (0,-4)
4(0)-2(-4)=8
0+8=8
8=8 *******TRUE, a solution!!!!!
Happy Calculating!!!
