Question

The ordered pair below is a solution to which equation?. . (3, 15). . A. y = 5x. B. y = 3x. C. y = 1/5x. D. y = 1/3x

Answer 1

The solution to the ordered pair (3,15) is the equation y = 5x, which is letter A. This is found by substituting the value of the x into the equation and solving for y. The equation y = 5x satisfies the ordered pair (3,15) because if you substitute x with 3, the equation becomes y = 5(3) which is 15.
