Question

if x=0 and y=k is the solution of the equation 8x-3y=6, then the value of k is
a)-1 b)-2 c)0 d)1

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 3y = 6

and x = 0, y = k

substituting these values in the equation, we get

8(0) - 3(k) = 6

∴ 0 - 3k = 6

∴ -3k = 6

∴ k = 6/(-3)

∴ k = -2

So the value of k is b) -2
