Question

The point satisfies the equation $x+8y=26.$

• A. $(4,3)$
• B. $(2,3)$
• C. $(1,3)$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $(2,3)$

Consider the equation $x+8y=26.$
Substitute the points in the equation to check whether they satisfy the equation or not.
Substituting $x=4$ and $y=3$ in the equation, we get
$4+8\left(3\right)=28\ne 26.$
$\Rightarrow$ The point $(4,3)$ does not satisfy the equation $x+8y=26.$
Similarly, substituting $x=1$ and $y=3$ in equation, we get
$1+8\left(3\right)=25\ne 26.$
$\Rightarrow$ The point $(1,3)$ does not satisfy the equation.
Also, substituting $x=2$ and $y=3$ in the equation, we get
$2+8\left(3\right)=26.$
$\Rightarrow$ The point $(2,3)$ satisfies the given equation.
