Examples
y=x−96 , (0,0)
Step 1
Insert the values of x=0 and y=0 into the equation to find if the ordered pair is a solution.
0=(0)−96
Step 2
Step 2.1
Cancel the common factor of 9 and 6.
Step 2.1.1
Factor 3 out of 9.
0=0−3(3)6
Step 2.1.2
Cancel the common factors.
Step 2.1.2.1
Factor 3 out of 6.
0=0−3⋅33⋅2
Step 2.1.2.2
Cancel the common factor.
0=0−3⋅33⋅2
Step 2.1.2.3
Rewrite the expression.
0=0−32
0=0−32
0=0−32
Step 2.2
Subtract 32 from 0.
0=−32
0=−32
Step 3
Since 0≠−32, there are no solutions.
No solution
Step 4
Since the equation is not true when the values are used, the ordered pair is not a solution.
The ordered pair is not a solution to the equation.
