Q. Does (1,7) make the equation y=x true?Choices:(A) yes(B) no
Identify Values: Identify the values of x and y in the point (1,7). We have x=1 and y=7.
Substitute Equation: Substitute the values of x and y into the equation y=x.Substitute 1 for x and 7 for y in y=x.Equation after substitution: 7=1
Determine Truth: Determine if the substituted equation 7=1 is true.Since 7 is not equal to 1, the statement 7=1 is false.Therefore, the point (1,7) does not satisfy the equation y=x.
