Explain why (3,-4) is a solution to 2y + 3x = 1.

When the equation is graphed on a calculator, the point can be found within its table. 

Substituting x = 3 and y = -4 into the equation makes it true. 

The graph of the line passes through the point (3,-4).

A function is shown in the table below.

If included in the table, which ordered pair, (−4,1) or (1,−4), would result in a relation that is no longer a function? Explain your answer.

(−4,1), because then every element of the domain is not assigned one unique element in the range.

Which of the equations listed below represent the line passing through the points (2,3) and (4,−7)?

5x + y = 13

y + 7 = −5(x − 4)

y = −5x + 13

y − 7 = 5(x − 4)  

5x + y = 13

y + 7 = −5(x − 4)

y = −5x + 13
