Question

Verify whether the line 3x + 4y = 7 passes through the point (1,1)

Answer 1

For the line to pass through the point (1, 1), the given ordered pair should be a solution to the equation 3x + 4y = 7

Putting the ordered pair in the equation,

(3x1) + (4x1) = 7

We see that the equation holds.

Thus, the line 3x + 4y = 7 passes through the point (1, 1)
