Determine whether (0, - 7) is a solution of 4x - 6y = - 5.
To determine whether (0, -7) is a solution of 4x - 6y = -5, substitute x = 0 and y = -7 into the equation and check if both sides are equal:
4(0) - 6(-7) = -5
0 + 42 = -5
42 ≠ -5
Since 42 is not equal to -5, the point (0, -7) is not a solution of the equation 4x - 6y = -5.
