Which of the following coordinates lies on y = -3x + 1?
(-1, -2)
Correct answer: (-3, 10)
(1, -4)
(3, -10)
Q5.
Why will y = 3x - 5 and y = 3x + 1 NOT intersect?
Correct answer: Because the gradient is the same.
Because the gradients are too large.
Because the y-intercept has a negative.
Because the y-intersects are too far apart.
