Question

Does (6 , -3) make the equation y=-2x true ?

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

(x , y) = (6 , -3) ∴ x = 6, y = -3

Plug in 6 for x in the equation, and -3 for y.

y = -2x

(-3) = (-2)(6)

Simplify. Multiply.

(-3) = (-12)

-3 ≠ -12 ∴ (6 , -3) is not a solution for y = -2x

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

(6,-3)  means x=6 and y=-3

Substitute into the equation

y= -2x

-3 = -2(6)

-3 = -12

This is false
