A)Yes
B)No

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To check if a point is a solution to an equation, we substitute the values of its coordinates into the equation and check if the equation is true. In this case, we have x + y = 14 and the point (6, 8). Substituting the values, we get 6 + 8 = 14, which is true. Therefore, the point (6, 8) is a solution to the equation x + y = 14. The correct choice is A) Yes. We can substitute x = 6 and y = 8 into the equation x + y = 14 and see if the equation holds true. 
6 + 8 = 14, so the equation is satisfied by the given point. Therefore, the answer is (A) Yes.
