Final answer:

To find the ordered pair that satisfies the equation 5x + 2y = 7, choose any x-value and solve for the corresponding y-value. The ordered pair is (0, 3.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the ordered pair that satisfies the equation 5x + 2y = 7, we can choose any x-value and solve for the corresponding y-value.

Let's choose x = 0 and solve for y:

5(0) + 2y = 7

0 + 2y = 7

2y = 7

y = 7/2

So the ordered pair that satisfies the equation is (0, 7/2) or (0, 3.5).

Answer: (1,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 5+2 is already equal to 7 all we have to do is to multiply them by one to maintain that so the ordered pair would be (1,1)

Hope this helps
