Answer:

1. (1,1) (2,6) (3, 11)

2. Yes

Explanation:

1. 5(1)-4 = 5-4 = 1

5(2)-4 = 10-4 = 6

5(3)-4 = 15-4 = 11

(I just chose 3 simple x values and plugged them into the equation to get the y values then wrote it as an ordered pair)

2. 5(-5)-4 = -25-4 = -29

-29 = -29

(Same as number 1 but I used the given x value then I checked if the y value I got matched the ordered pair)

Explanation:

y = 5x - 4

When x = 0, y = 5(0) - 4 = -4.

When x = 1, y = 5(1) - 4 = 1.

When x = 2, y = 5(2) - 4 = 6.

The 3 ordered pairs we have are (0,-4), (1,1) and (2,6).

We now check the point (-5,-29):

(-29) : 5(-5) - 4

-29 : -25 - 4

-29 : -29 => -29 = -29.

Since Left hand side = Right hand side, the point (-5,-29) is a solution.
