Question

can anyone help me out here? I will pay you 20 points

Answer 1

The ordered pair that makes an equation true is called a solution

a)solution

b) not a solution

c) solution

d) solution

e)not a solution

f) not a solution

g) solution

h) not a solution

Explanation:

The first number in an ordered pair is x, the second one is y

Plug in the numbers to x and y respectively

I'll give two examples so you know how to solve it

a) y=3x+1

-5=3(-2)+1

make sure you use pemdas (multiply first)

-5=-6+1

add

-5=-5

this is true (meaning it is a solution)

b) 6=3(-3) +1

6=-9+1

6 = -8

this is NOT true (not a solution)
