Answer: The point (5,7) is on the line 5x+6y = 67
=====================================================
Explanation:
(5,7) means x = 5 and y = 7 pair up
Plug in those values to get...
5x + 6y = 67
5*5 + 6*7 = 67
25 + 42 = 67
67 = 67
We get the same number on both sides after fully simplifying. This means the equation is true. A true equation in the last step means the first equation is true when (x,y) = (5,7).
Therefore, the point (5,7) is a solution and it is on the line 5x+6y = 67.
