Problema Solution
The point (17, 0) lies on the line 8x + 11y = 136.
Determine if this point is a solution of the system
8x + 11y = 136
0x – y = -8
Answer provided by our tutors
Substitute the equations with x = 17 and y = 0
first equation:
8(17) + 11(0) = 136 --> the point is (17,0) is therefore a solution of the system.
0(17) - 8(0) = -8 -- > the point is not a solution o f this equation.
