Q. Is (0,4) a solution to the equation y=6x?Choices:(A)yes(B)no
Understand Solution to Equation: Understand what it means for a point to be a solution to an equation.A point is a solution to an equation if, when the x and y values of the point are substituted into the equation, the equation is true.
Substitute Values into Equation: Substitute the x and y values of the point (0,4) into the equation y=6x.Substitute x=0 and y=4 into the equation to see if it holds true.y=6x becomes 4=6(0).
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication on the right side of the equation. 6×0=0.So, the equation becomes 4=0.
Compare Results: Compare the results.Since 4 does not equal 0, the point (0,4) does not satisfy the equation y=6x.
