Question

Consider the equation and the following ordered pairs: (1,y) and (x,3).

6x+1.2y=−2.4
Step 1 of 2: Compute the missing x and y values so that each ordered pair will satisfy the given equation.

Answer 1

Pair (1,y)

`6(1)+1.2y=-2.4 \\ \\ 1.2y=-8.4 \\ \\ y=-7`

Pair (x,3)

`6x+1.2(3)=-2.4 \\ \\ 6x=-6 \\ \\ x=-1`
