Does the point (0, 1) satisfy the equation y = 9x? Choices: (A)yes (B)no

Understand Equation Satisfaction: Understand what it means for a point to satisfy an equation. A point satisfies an equation if, when we substitute the x and y values of the point into the equation, the equation holds true.Substitute Point Values: Substitute the x and y values of the point (0, 1) into the equation y = 9x. Substitute x = 0 and y = 1 into the equation to get 1 = 9(0).Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication on the right side of the equation. Calculate 9(0) to get 0. So, we have 1 = 0.Check Equation Truth: Check if the equation is true with the substituted values. Since 1 does not equal 0, the equation 1 = 0 is not true.Determine Point Satisfaction: Determine if the point (0, 1) satisfies the equation y = 9x. Since the equation is not true after substituting the point (0, 1), the point does not satisfy the equation y = 9x.

Understand Equation Satisfaction: Understand what it means for a point to satisfy an equation. $\newline$ A point satisfies an equation if, when we substitute the $x$ and $y$ values of the point into the equation, the equation holds true.
Substitute Point Values: Substitute the $x$ and $y$ values of the point $(0, 1)$ into the equation $y = 9x$ . $\newline$ Substitute $x = 0$ and $y = 1$ into the equation to get $1 = 9(0)$ .
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication on the right side of the equation. $\newline$ Calculate $9(0)$ to get $0$ . So, we have $1 = 0$ .
Check Equation Truth: Check if the equation is true with the substituted values. $\newline$ Since $1$ does not equal $0$ , the equation $1 = 0$ is not true.
Determine Point Satisfaction: Determine if the point $(0, 1)$ satisfies the equation $y = 9x$ . Since the equation is not true after substituting the point $(0, 1)$ , the point does not satisfy the equation $y = 9x$ .
