Q. Does the point (2,0) satisfy the equation y=4x?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Identify values of x and y: Identify the values of x and y in the point (2,0). The point (2,0) gives us x=2 and y=0.
Substitute values into equation: Substitute the values of x and y into the equation y=4x. Substitute 2 for x and 0 for y in the equation y=4x. Equation after substitution: 0=4×2.
Perform multiplication for verification: Perform the multiplication to check if the equation holds true.Calculate 4×2 which equals 8.Equation after calculation: 0=8.
Determine if equation is true: Determine if the equation 0=8 is true.Since 0 is not equal to 8, the equation does not hold true.Therefore, the point (2,0) does not satisfy the equation y=4x.
