QuestionFind the coordinates of the point (x,y)(x,y) that satisfies the equation 3x5y=153x - 5y = 15 at the point (6,1)(6,1).

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given a point (6,1)(6,1). We are given a linear equation 3x5y=153x -5y =15
3. We need to verify if the given point lies on the line represented by the equation

STEP 2

The general form of a linear equation is ax+by=cax + by = c. A point (x0,y0)(x0, y0) lies on the line if and only if the equation holds true when x=x0x = x0 and y=y0y = y0.

STEP 3

Substitute x=6x =6 and y=1y =1 into the equation 3x5y=153x -5y =15.
3(6)5(1)=153(6) -5(1) =15

STEP 4

Calculate the left side of the equation.
18=1518 - =15

STEP 5

implify the left side of the equation.
13=1513 =15Since13 is not equal to15, the point (,1)(,1) does not lie on the line 3x5y=153x -5y =15.
