consider the following equation:
\\x + 2y = -2\\
step 2 of 2: determine if the given ordered pair, \\((-4, 1)\\), satisfies the given equation.
answer
yes
no

Explanation:

Identify the coordinates of the ordered pair

Using the Cartesian Coordinates knowledge point

$$ (x, y) = (-4, 1) \implies x = -4,\ y = 1 $$

Substitute the coordinates into the equation

Using the Evaluating Algebraic Expressions knowledge point

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Simplify and verify the equality

Using the Linear Equations in Two Variables knowledge point

$$ LATEXBLOCK1 $$

Answer:

  • YES (Correct answer)
  • NO
