What does it mean for a point to be a solution to a linear equation? For example, if I say, "(2,5) is a solution to the equation (y=2x+3)," how could you check my claim?

(2, 5) is not a solution of the linear equation .

Let be linear equation , if we know that and we need to check is by algebraic means, that is, we solve for :

Hence, we conclude that (2, 5) is not a solution of the linear equation .

We kindly invite to check this question on linear functions: link

In your equation y=2x+3 and you used 2 [from your point (2,5) ] as the value of x, then y=2(2)+3=7.

now if you plotted this, that point would be (2,7), not (2,5).

So (2,5) is not the solution.
