Question

Of the lines listed below, which ones pass through the point ( 0, 3 )?

Select the correct answer(s).

y= 8x +2

y= 3x +8

y= 6x +3

y= 8x +3

y= 7x +9

Answer 1

The third & fourth ones pass through. It's not even necessary to substitute in this one; simply recognize that because x is zero, it will cancel the slope part of the equation & you should only look for those equations where the y-intercept is 3.

Answer 2

plug in x=0 and y=3 if they come out being a true statement (ex. not 2=1 or w.e.) then it is a correct answer.

do it first then here...

no

no

yes

yes

no

Answer 3

plug in x=0 and y=3 and see if they come out as being correct

y = 8x + 2           ,        3 = 0 + 2           ,       NO

y = 3x + 8          ,         3 = 0 + 8           ,       NO

y = 6x + 3           ,        3 = 0 + 3           ,      YES

y = 8x + 3           ,        3 = 0 + 3           ,      YES

y = 7x + 9          ,         3 = 0 + 9           ,        NO
