Q. Does (5,1) make the equation y=5x true?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Identify values of x and y: Identify the values of x and y in the point (5,1). We have x=5 and y=1.
Substitute values into equation: Substitute the values of x and y into the equation y=5x.Substitute 5 for x and 1 for y in y=5x.Equation after substitution: 1=5×5
Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication to see if the equation holds true.Calculate 5×5.5×5=25Equation: 1=25
Determine equation truth: Determine if the equation 1=25 is true.Since 1 is not equal to 25, the equation 1=25 is not true.Therefore, the point (5,1) does not satisfy the equation y=5x.
