Respuesta :

[tex]x+5y=12[/tex]

The problem is giving us a coordinate (x,y): (4,?).

Then, to know which value satisfies the latter in the given equation, we have to replace x by 4 as follows:

[tex]4+5y=12[/tex]

Finally, isolating for y we get the result.

[tex]5y=12-4[/tex][tex]y=\frac{8}{5}=1.6[/tex]

Answer: ( 4, 8/5 )
