Question

For the equation, find three ordered pair solutions by completing the table. Then use any two of the ordered pairs to graph the equationX-y=5

Answer 1

So, we want to find three ordered pair solutions for the equation:

`x-y=5`

These could be:

If x=0:

`\begin{gathered} 0-y=5 \\ -y=5 \\ y=5 \end{gathered}`

The first one is (0,5).

If x=-1:

`\begin{gathered} -1-y=5 \\ -1-5=y \\ -6=y \end{gathered}`

The second one is (-1,-6)

If x=1:

`\begin{gathered} 1-y=5 \\ 1-5=y \\ y=-4 \end{gathered}`

The third one is (1,-4)

And, the graph will be something like:
