Full solution

Q. Does the point (1,5)(-1, -5) satisfy the equation y=2x2+6x1y = 2x^2 + 6x - 1?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)yes\newline(B)no
  1. Substitute x-value: Substitute the xx-value from the point into the equation to find yy.y=2(1)2+6(1)1y = 2(-1)^2 + 6(-1) - 1y=2(1)61y = 2(1) - 6 - 1y=261y = 2 - 6 - 1y=5y = -5
  2. Compare y-values: Compare the calculated yy-value with the yy-value from the point.\newlineCalculated y=5y = -5, Point's y=5y = -5\newlineSince both values are the same, the point satisfies the equation.
