Question

Complete the ordered pair so it is a solution of 3x+2y=36. (6, )

Answer 1

(6, 9)

Explanation:

3x + 2y = 36

Substitute 6 into the equation to get the output.

3(6) + 2y = 36

Multiply 3 and 6.

18 + 2y = 36

Subtract 18 from both sides.

2y = 18

Divide both sides by 2.

y = 9

The ordered pair when x = 6 is

(6, 9)

Answer 2

9

Explanation:

Plug in 6 to x, since this is the x-value in the ordered pair.

`3(6)+2y=36\\18+2y=36\\2y=18\\y=9`
