The ordered pairs represent (x,y)

To know what ordered pair is a solution we need to substitute the values of x and y with the ordered pair and if the result is equal we have a solution to the equation

For example

(0,-7)

x=0

y=-7

-7=5(0)-7

-7=0-7

-7=-7

Due the result is equal the ordered pair (0,-7) is a solution of y=5x-7
