Question

20. Which ordered pair is a solution to

y = 7x - 3?
A. (-2, -17) C. (2,7)
B. (-2, 11) D. (2, 14)

Answer 1

A.

Explanation:

Here's how to determine if a ordered pair is a solution to an inequality

Step 1. Take the ordered pair and substitute their x and y values to the inequality

Inequality:
`y=7x-3`

Ordered pair:
`(-2,-17)`

Answer:
`y=7x-3`

`-17=7(-2)-3`

Step 2. Solve

`-17=7(-2)-3`

`-17=-14-3`

`-17=-17`

Therefore,
`(-2,-17)` is a solution to the inequality
