The given equation is expressed as

x + 6y = 4

In the ordered pairs, the first value represents x while the second value represents y.

For the first option, we would substitute x = 4 and y = 0 into the equation. It becomes

4 + 6 * 0 = 4

4 = 4

Thus, the ordered pair, (4, 0) is the solution of the equation

Also, for the last option, we would substitute 2 = 4 and y = 1/3 into the equation. It becomes

2 + 6 * 1/3 = 4

2 + 2 = 4

4 = 4

Thus, the ordered pair, (2, 1/3) is the solution of the equation
