Find a solution to the linear equation minus 5X + Y = -10 by filling in the boxes with a valid value of X and y

The possible solutions are:

x = 0 and y = - 10

x = 1 and y = - 5

x = 2 and y = 0

x = 3 and y = 5

Solution:

Given linear equation is:

-5x + y = - 10

We have to find solution the above given linear equation

Which means, we have to find values of "x" and "y"

Those values of "x" and "y" must satisfy the linear equation (L. H. S = R. H. S)

Some of the possible values are:

Substitute x = 0 and y = - 10 in given linear equation

-5 (0) + (-10) = - 10

0 - 10 = - 10

-10 = - 10

Thus x = 0 and y = - 10 is a solution to given linear equation

Substitute x = 1 and y = - 5 in given linear equation

-5 (1) + (-5) = - 10

-5 - 5 = - 10

-10 = - 10

Thus x = 1 and y = - 5 is a solution to given linear equation

Substitute x = 2 and y = 0 in given linear equation

-5 (2) + 0 = - 10

-10 = - 10

Thus x = 2 and y = 0 is a solution to given linear equation

Substitute x = 3 and y = 5 in given linear equation

-5 (3) + 5 = - 10

-15 + 5 = - 10

-10 = - 10

Thus x = 3 and y = 5 is a solution to given linear equation
