To check if \( (15,3) \) is a solution to the equation \( y = \frac{1}{3} x \), you can substitute \( x = 15 \) into the equation. This gives you \( y = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 15 = 5 \). Since the \( y \)-value here (5) does not match the given \( y \)-coordinate of 3, the point \( (15,3) \) is not a solution. Another fun way to verify this is to visualize it! If you graph the line defined by \( y = \frac{1}{3} x \), you’ll see it has a gentle upward slope, which means as \( x \) increases, \( y \) increases—specifically, not reaching 3 when \( x = 15 \). So, no matching point there!
