Question

2x + y = 2

Step 2 of 2: Determine the missing coordinate in the ordered pair (?, -3) so that it will satisfy the given equation.

Answer 1

2.5

Explanation:

Plug is -3 for y and solve for x

2x -3 = 2 Add 3 to both sides

2x = 5 Divide both sides by 2

x =
`(5)/(2)` o r 2
`\frac{1}2}` or 2.5
