Answer:
Explanation:
Any ordered pair (x, y) that satisfies the equation y = -5x - 4 is a solution to the equation.
For example, (1, -9) is a solution because if we substitute x=1 and y=-9 into the equation, we get:
-9 = -5(1) - 4
Simplifying the right-hand side of the equation gives:
-9 = -5 - 4
-9 = -9
Since both sides of the equation are equal, the ordered pair (1, -9) is a solution to the equation y = -5x - 4.
Similarly, we can check other ordered pairs to see if they satisfy the equation. If the coordinates of the ordered pair satisfy the equation, then the ordered pair is a solution.
