4x−5y=24

Select each correct answer.

(−9, −12)

(6, 0)

(4, 8)

(1, −4)

Respuesta :

this is just a matter of subbing in ur answer choices into the equation to see which ones make the equation true.

4x - 5y = 24

solutions are : (-9,-12), (6,0), (1,-4)


Plug in each point in the equation.
A. 4x - 5y = 24  (-9, -12)

4(-9) - 5(-12) = 24

-36 + 60 = 24

24 = 24 which is a true statement.

A. works.

B. 4x - 5y = 24  (6, 0)

4(6) - 5(0) = 24

24 - 0 = 24

24 = 24 which is a true statement.

B. works

C. 4x - 5y = 24  (4, 8)

4(4) - 5(8) = 24

16 - 40 = 24

-24 = 24 which is a false statement.

C. does not work.

D. 4x - 5y = 24  (1, -4)

4(1) - 5(-4) = 24

4 + 20 = 24

24 = 24 which is a true statement.

D. works.
