Question

Select all the ordered pairs that satisfy the function y = 3x + 5. A. (2, –1) A. , (2, –1) B. ( –3, –4) B. , ( –3, –4) C. ( 4, 17 ) C. , ( 4, 17 ) D. ( 3, 8 ) D. , ( 3, 8 )

Answer 1

B. ( –3, –4)

C. ( 4, 17 )

Explanation:

Function: y = 3x + 5

Using method of elimination

A. (2, –1)

x = 2, y = -1

-1 = 3 (2) + 5

-1 ≠ 11

This option is incorrect!

B. ( –3, –4)

x = -3, y = -4

-4 = 3 (-3) + 5

-4 = - 9 + 5

-4 = -4

This option is correct!

C. ( 4, 17 )

x = 4, y = 17

17 = 3 (4) + 5

17 = 12 + 5

17 = 17

This option is correct!

D. ( 3, 8 )

x = 3, y = 8

8 = 3 (3) + 5

8 = 9 + 5

8 = 14

This option is incorrect!
