Determine if the given graph is the graph of the function y=−2/5x+3 . Enter 1 for yes. Enter 2 for no.
The 2 points on the graph, first one is (3, 0) and the other one is (1, 5)
To determine if the given graph is the graph of the function y = -2/5x + 3, we can substitute the x and y coordinates of the given points into the equation and check if they satisfy it.
For the point (3, 0), when we substitute x = 3 and y = 0 into the equation y = -2/5x + 3, we get:
0 = -2/5(3) + 3
0 = -6/5 + 3
0 = -6/5 + 15/5
0 = 9/5
Since 0 ≠ 9/5, the point (3, 0) does not satisfy the equation y = -2/5x + 3. Therefore, the graph is not the graph of the function y = -2/5x + 3.
We can make the same verification for the second point (1, 5) if needed.
