The ordered pair (6 , 4) is a solution for y - 4 = 7(x - 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of a linear equation is:
[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})[/tex] , where
- m is the slope of the line
- [tex](x_{1},y_{1})[/tex] is a point on the line
Any point on the line is a solution for the equation of the line
The solution of an equation is the values of x and y which make the left hand side is equal to the right hand side
∵ The equation is y - 4 = 7(x - 6)
- Compare the equation by the point-slope form above
∴ m = 7
∴ [tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 6 and [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = 4
- That means point (6 , 6) lies on the line
∴ Point (6 , 4) is a point on the line which represents the
given equation
∵ Any point on a line is a solution of the equation of that line
∴ (6 , 4) is a solution of the equation
The ordered pair (6 , 4) is a solution for y - 4 = 7(x - 6)
