Question

The lin 2x - 3y = 4 does not passes through the point :

A) (1/2,-1)

B) (2,0)

C) (1, -2/3)

D) (2,-1)

I would really appreciate it if some helps me with this question!

Answer 1

The choose D (2, –1)

2x-3y=4 —> 3y=2X-4 —> y= 2/3x – 4/3

y=mx+b —> So ; m= 2/3 , b= - 4/3

y-intercept :(0, -4/3)

0=2/3x –4/3 —> 2/3x = 4/3 —> X=2

x-intercept ; (2,0)

By drawing a straight line from point 2 on the x-axis and point -4/3 on the y-axis, the points that are on the axis have been extracted, but the point (2,-1) is not on the axis . :)

I hope it helped you ^_^
