You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3x=-3y-21;(0,1)
What you are usually asked to do is determine whether (0,1) is a solution to the given equation. To do this, realize that (0,1)=(x,y), therefore let x=0 and y=1 and see if both sides equal.
3(0)=-3(1)-21
0=-3-21
0=-24
They aren't equal therefore (0,1) is not a solution.
Happy Calculating!!!!
