Which point lies on the line $y = 2x - 5$?

1. (3, 1)
2. (4, 3)
3. (5, 5)
4. (3, 1), (4, 3) and (5, 5) all

Correct answer: (3, 1), (4, 3) and (5, 5) all

Solution

Check each option in the equation $y = 2x - 5$. For $(3,1)$, $2(3)-5=1$; for $(4,3)$, $2(4)-5=3$; and for $(5,5)$, $2(5)-5=5$. So all three points satisfy the equation.
