The correct answer is: [A]: "(3, 10)" . ________________________________________________ We are given the equation: ______________________________________ " y = 3x + 1 " ___________________________________ When "x = 3" (in this equation), "y =10". _____________________________________ Let us plug in "3" for "x" in this equation, and see what "y" equals: __________________________________________________ y = 3x + 1 ;
y = 3*(3) + 1 ;
y = 9 + 1 = 10 ________________________________________________________ So, Answer choice, [A]: (3,10) ; is a solution to the equation, "y = 3x+1" . ________________________________________________________ The other answer choices are incorrect. ___________________________________________________
