Q. Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation?−3x+4y=14Choose 1 answer:(A) Only (2,5)(B) Only (4,6)(C) Both (2,5) and (4,6)(D) Neither
Check Solution 2,5: Substitute the x and y values from the ordered pair 2,5 into the equation −3x+4y=14 to check if it satisfies the equation.Calculation: −3(2)+4(5)=−6+20=14
Solution Verification 2,5: Since the calculation in Step 1 results in 14, which is the same as the right side of the equation, the ordered pair 2,5 is a solution to the equation.
Check Solution (4,6): Substitute the x and y values from the ordered pair (4,6) into the equation −3x+4y=14 to check if it satisfies the equation.Calculation: −3(4)+4(6)=−12+24=12
Solution Verification 4,6: Since the calculation in Step 3 results in 12, which is not the same as the right side of the equation, the ordered pair 4,6 is not a solution to the equation.
